[GRASSLIST:10597] Re: GRASS 6.1cvs gis.m error

[Michael Barton]

Peter,

It may well be the case that your v.what is newer than the one in the
package from my website. Now that it is in the CVS, you should use that one
instead of the one in the package on my website. I will take that one out so
as not to confuse anyone.

Michael
