No, you can select any number of connected edges or a curve.

Follow Me And Keep is really better

Thanks make, not really getting that to work. do you:
- select profile
 - select start point for extrusion then keep picking around a path or points till finished?
how do you finish; double click? 

 - 
This EdgeFollowMe was meant to be a EdgeFollowMeAndKeep ?
The FAK code is readily amenable to adjustment - swap 'face' for 'curve', and find midpoint of curve.vertices rather than face.vertices etc it should then work much the same... - 
Looks like I have been wasting my time if FAK already does this.
Andrew, Just like Sketchup's FollowMe, select the entire path first then run the plugin and select the profile.
 - 
not a waste of time as FAK does faces and it keeps.
 - 
FAK works on selected face[s].
BUT you could recast some blocks of its code to process a curve's vertices rather than a face's vertices... -

I was hoping to be able to place a profile in place the pick a path, Sam. At times it's easier to do so rather than zoom out to find the path then execute...
I don't think you have wasted your time at all!!
Thanks Sam.
 - 
Sorry Andrew but EdgeFollowMe3 is the end of the road.
 - 
no worries, Sam. Thanks for your input...
