Hey Kim! Cool script, thanks! But it doesn't quite do what I want -  
or I'm not using it correct?

I wanted to select eg. all the vertical edges on a mesh I modeled as  
a proxy shape, for making hair curves. then hit a buton, and it would  
create the curves from edge for me (in order).

cheers tho!

It's an ok way for now to go with the cluster solution btw thanks for  
that guillaume:-)

... I love this list...
