how to replace a node with a new tree #194

Hi,

treelib doesn't provide an API like replace(node, new) to implement replacing a node with a new tree. Does anyone know how to implement this functionality with the present API?

Thanks!

You should be able do this in two lines:

tree.remove_node(id_of_node_to_remove)
tree.paste(new_tree)

If that doesn't work, please comment with a full, but concise working example.
