[GRASS-user] How to import grass ASCII grid with comma as a separator

[Benjamin Ducke]

Since the comma is used to format decimal numbers in several
countries, I still think a flag to interpret it that way should
be added to all modules affected by this.

I can think of:

v.in.ascii,
r.in.xyz,
r.in.ascii

Any others?
