<p>
The <b>cats</b> and <b>where</b> options are used only if a <b>layer</b>
&gt; 0 is specified, otherwise, those options are ignored. Be aware
that the default is <em>layer=-1</em>, meaning that all layers are
processed, ignoring the <b>cats</b> and <b>where</b> options.

<p>If <b>type=area</b> is selected, boundaries of selected areas will be
generalized, and the options <b>cats</b>, <b>where</b>, and
<b>layer</b> will be used to select areas.
