This is cool. Still, there is a bug in v.in.ascii in 6.2.x that using
-n switch has no effect. v.in.ascii in 6.2.x behaves kind of like if -n
was always set, thus any garbage in the header is ignored automaticaly.

In 6.3 however, if you have garbage in the header section, you must use
-n. Otherwise v.in.ascii quits with an error, which is correct
bahaviour and 6.2 be should be fixed in this regard.

I really have checked this. Please read my comment dated 2007-03-13
