<DIV></DIV>I think ST_DFullyWithin sounds great.<BR>Is it ok if I put this to in
ticket #137. In the code they are all close related, st_distance,
st_max_distace, st_shortestline, st_longestline, st_dwithin,
st_dfullywithin<BR><BR>I have a patch for the trunk that seems to work, but I
haven't tested more than randomly. I will try to build cunit-tests but I think
it is difficult to get the make check thing work at all. In windows I get som
problems and in ubuntu I get permission-problems. I'm new to Linux.<BR><BR>I
also just have become a father :-) two weeks ago so my sparetime for learning

st_dcompletlywithin is maybe the most describing, but very
