Looking at the documentation, it appears that the size of the square node is configurable. So, if you set the size to be the same as line width, the square will be invisible. > Line drawing glyphs look better IMO, and the MP nodes module is probably > even better, but I need to try... It should be relatively easy to write a function that draws such trees without using any module as well.

There is a Metapost/Context module for drawing flow charts that
should handle this nicely.
If that’s still the same module that I know, then I don’t think it’s
suitable (too much fixed on a grid).
There is also a Metapost module for drawing relational charts
("nodes") that could be another approach.
I actually never really looked into the nodes module, but I guess that
would work.
There is a simple LaTeX / plain TeX package [1] for this but I don't
know if the plain TeX version works with ConTeXt.
