Hello Jan,

As it is now, the code does not provide an easy way of calculating the
longest branch including junctions. However, i made some changes
lately and i store now the skeleton as an undirected graph (set of
vertices and edges). You could maybe play around with some graph
algorithms to calculate that measure...

If more people are interested, i can add an option to store the
skeleton as a JGrapht graph (http://jgrapht.sourceforge.net/).

Just let me know!

Cheers!
