 <h2>NOTES</h2>
 
 The <b>-l</b> flag instructs the module to print legend information

-color</i>) to standard output for further use in graphical software.

+When combined with the verbose flag, the legend information will
 be extended with some additional statistical information. If the
 <b>-n</b> flag is set, the module will only print the legend

-To actually draw the legend for the polygons in the graphical
-display, the procedure is:
+<h3>Thematic map with legend</h3>
 
-<div class="code"><pre>
-# first save legend instructions to a file	
-d.vect.thematic -n map=communes2 column=pop/area algorithm=std \
-  nbclasses=5 colors="0:0:255,50:100:255,255:100:50,255:0:0,156:0:0" \
