What is it?
***********
CleanCut is a Maya-like cut tool that, It allows you to cut from edge to edge,
edge to vertex, vertex to vertex, and anything inbetween. You can, for instance,
make a zigzag cut across a single face. works in Editable Poly only, of course!

How do I install/uninstall it?
******************************
Just extract CleanCut.mzp  and  drag it into a Max viewport, or  run it using  Run
from  the  MAXScript  menu. If  it  is  not  already  installed, it  will install.
If it's already been installed, it will uninstall. Simple!

How do I use it?
****************
After installation, you will find a new category in the Customize User Interface
dialog called RHTools. In this category will be an item labeled CleanCut. Just add
this to a button or assign it to a keyboard shortcut. Due to a Maxscript issue in
R4 it won't work from a quadmenu; this might have been fixed in 4.2.

To start CleanCut, you need to be editing an EPoly object in sub-object mode (it
doesn't matter what sub-object level you're in). When you start the tool, dragging
the mouse over the object will cause edges and vertices to light up as you pass
over them.  Whenever an edge or vertex is lighted up, that means it is able to 
accept a cut. Just click once to start the cut, and keep clicking until you are
finished. 

A cut is not complete until it goes from an existing vertex or edge to another 
existing vertex or edge. Once a cut is complete, the new edges and verts are then
available to accept cuts, so you can just keep cutting around until you're happy
with the result. Holding down the Ctrl key while clicking will start a new cut
without exiting the tool. Holding down the Shift key will temporarily disable 
snapping to edges and verts, so you can make precise cuts in areas of high detail.

Are there any known bugs or issues?
***********************************
Yes. As I mentioned before, you can't currently use CleanCut from a quadmenu in 
R4. There are also some undo issues, so I would strongly advise saving your work
before using this tool. Undo-ing will cause hidden duplicates of your object to
appear in the scene. I'll work on fixing this for the next update.
