Description: This documentation does not specify the permissable values for the mergetype argument to SPY.TREE.  Guessing from the menu I thought they might be MergeNone, MergeAll and MergeDefault.'
I had to look at the source to eventually discover that they are the atoms (quoted, not value) NONE, ALL and T (I think)
