    The latest builds of Global Mapper have a new EXTEND function that allows you to easily extend multiple lines until they meet some other previously selected line. It won't however extend both lines if they wouldn't meet. Instead it just creates a straight line from the end of the lines to extend to the selected "extend-to" lines. Would it be better if both lines extended in that case to where they would meet?
