Threaded (subject indented) php forums?

I'm shopping around for php based forum/bulletin board software.
PhpBB is (obviously) popular. But I don't like the linear way its
topic threads
are presented.
In the old days, the earliest forums were files based. File-naming
schemes
could be used so threads could be presented as indented, hierarchical
post lists,
where it was visually obvious that post number 5 was a direct response
to
post number 3, etc. In all the mysql-based forums I've seen so far
each thread is presented as a linear line of responses to a head topic
listing,
where the individual response-to-which-response hierarchy is lost.
Perhaps this has something to do the difficulty sql has in modeling
hierarchical
structures. Regardless, are there any php/mysql based forums out
there, that start off
by presenting a topic list, *BUT WHERE* individual thread histories
are presented
as an indented hierarchy? Maybe I'm just blind. I've looked at
several and haven't found
it yet.
