[mapserver-users] vmap0 to shape file

[woodbri at swoodbridge.com]

OK, I tried this, if you don't have the xvt libraries and includes it 
will not be easy and will only be fun if you like pain and headaches.

Frank, 
Does ogr2ogr support converting VPF to shapefiles?
What is the command syntax?
What are the limits on conversion?

Thanks,
  -Steve W.
