Victor,
	We currently have a treekey class that will do this.  Not sure exactly 
what you are trying to do, but maybe we could give some advice, if you 
give us the details.

You can review the functionality of the treekey with the test program 
genbooktest

Try:

cd sword/tests
mkdir test
./genbooktest test/mytree
c
level1
p
?

Hope this helps,
	-Troy.
