[GRASS5] r.profile and LatLong coords input?

[Bob Covill]

Markus,

It looks like profile coordinates provided on the command are NOT being 
parsed with G_scan_... . They are being parsed with sscanf which will 
not work with the sexagesimal format.

If you replace the following lines in main.c (r.profile)

sscanf(parm.profile->answers[i], "%lf", &e1);
sscanf(parm.profile->answers[i + 1], "%lf", &n1);
sscanf(parm.profile->answers[i + 2], "%lf", &e2);
sscanf(parm.profile->answers[i + 3], "%lf", &n2);

with

G_scan_easting(parm.profile->answers[i], &e1, G_projection());
G_scan_northing(parm.profile->answers[i+1], &n1, G_projection());
G_scan_easting(parm.profile->answers[i+2], &e2, G_projection()); 
         G_scan_northing(parm.profile->answers[i+3], &n2, G_projection());

that should take care of the problem.
