-  The freehand select tool has been enhanced to support polygon segments
-  in selections. Selection segments are all independently adjustable. This 
-  significant improvement fills the need for making polygonal selections 
-  without creating yet another tool.
+  The freehand select tool has been enhanced to support polygonal
+  selections. It also allows mixing free hand segments with polygonal
+  segments, editing of existing segments, applying angle-constraints
+  to segments, and of course the normal selection tool operations like
+  add and subtract. Altoghether this ends up making the Free Select
+  Tool a very versatile, powerful and easy-to-use selection tool.
