Fan Phylogram Using R

I generally use Mr Bayes to make phylogenetic trees, then plot them with TreeView. I recently came across the ape package in R, and was wondering if anyone has any experience importing/converting a nexus file and then using it with this package. Alternatively, is there another tree visualization software that can make fan plots like these http://stats.stackexchange.com/questions/4062/how-to-plot-a-fan-polar-dendrogram-in-r

IMHO this should not have been closed but marked as solved.

I agree with Michael, this is a standard question and answer scenario - it's irrelevant that the question was answered by the original poster.

Nevermind... guess I should just RTFM:

tree <- read.nexus(file="data.nxs")
plot(tree, type="fan")
