Hi, I'm the author of the SE version of Waymark. Just wanted to leave a quick comment here to hopefully provide some clarification to users because of this line in the description: You won't necessarily be able to pop out Point the Way and add Waymark and get the exact same experience. Point the Way and Waymark approach things differently.
Point the Way adds signs pointing to pretty much everywhere you can get to from a signpost.
Waymark has a bit of a different philosophy where I only(mostly) add signs to locations the road goes directly to. A sign post I add in Haafingar won't have sign pointing to Windhelm (vanilla signs that do things like this were left intact), but it will have one pointing to Whiterun which will itself have one pointing to Windhelm. Waymark is more "leap-froggy" for painful lack of a better word.
You go Haafingar > Whiterun > Windhelm in it as opposed to Point the Way's Haafingar > Windhelm.
Nothing wrong with it, there was just, afaict, no other options on LE, and options are good. Also Point The Way is no longer on the LE Nexus and a lot of people seem to refuse to use mods not from Nexus
Oh, didn't realize it had been deleted off Nexus in the recent "butthurt exodus". It's part of a STEP Guide build, so having a replacement option is good. I'll have to install this and test it first before updating the STEP Guide, though. And we might not change the PTW recommendation if it remains available for download from another site.

Should be good to backport?

Why? What's wrong with it?
