+About this script:-
+This script enables the fast creation of multiple loops on a mesh
+
+Usage:-
+1)Click the FastLoop button on the Tool Shelf to activate the tool
+2)Hover over the mesh in the general area where you would like a loop to be added
+  (shown by a highlight on the mesh)
+3)Click once to confirm the loop placement
+4)place the loop and then slide to fine tune its position
+5)Repeat 1-4 if needed
+6)Press Esc. twice to exit the tool
