+=======================
 
+The Lakewalker plugin can be used to generate traces of lakes, rivers or shoreline from

  - On-screen feedback to Lakewalker progress with cancel

  - limit ways to length
- - Access all lakewalker options via preferences and via ctrl-click pop-up dialog

+Classic Features:
+ - Access all lakewalker options via preferences
  - Read data in thread
