[Gdal-dev] ogrinfo and sql option

[matt.pettis at thomson.com]

They do... I'm trying this all out on windows xp, so I'll have to
modify, but those are good ideas.

Thanks,
matt

Matt,

I don't know if you can do that with an sql string or where clause in
ogrinfo, but you could use grep to remove all ogrinfo output that
contained the word LINESTRING, e.g.:

ogrinfo myfile.shp -al | grep LINESTRING -v

I also sometimes use a tool called dbview to look at data in dbf files. 
  Maybe those ideas help.
