[GRASSLIST:10252] Re: gismlegend.txt problem

[Michael Barton]

Peter,

Something just occurred to me. For thematic mapping in the new GIS Manager
to work, you must have an updated version of d.vect.thematic (released this
week).

This is in the CVS and available from my website. Did you install a new
d.vect.thematic?

Michael
