Description
Commands such as pstree on Linux can display the process tree with line drawing characters. It would be nice to add support for similar output.

To test, I built the new binary and ran it w/ various combination of flags (none, -g, -s, -gs) (using the pid of the shell -- e.g. ptree -g $$) both in the C locale and in the en_US.UTF-8 locale, and compared the output to the unmodified ptree command. The output was identical except for the expected line drawing characters (which looked as expected, both matching the indentation of the text as well as the ASCII or UTF-8 line drawing characters based on the locale).
For the man page changes, those were verified via manual inspection.
