Point and Edge Slide? Dec. 28, 2013, 8:47 p.m.

Hello everyone. I'm pretty new to Houdini and I have to say I'm pretty confused as to why there is no edge slide operator. All internet searches I've run seem to point to a plugin that hasn't been updated since Houdini 10:

http://www.fourthwall.ndo.co.uk/HT_HDK_PointSlide.html [fourthwall.ndo.co.uk]

I'm guessing it doesn't work anymore, since after installing I don't see a new SOP.

It strikes me as odd because Houdini's built in Edge Loop SOP draws a nice projection of a loop which it then turns into a polysplit. How hard would it be to create a SOP that does the first part pretty much the same and then moves the points accordingly rather than polysplit?

Does anyone know of a solution that isn't outdated?
