[GRASS5] Re: V_ stuff

[Markus Neteler]

Hi Artemis, Huidae,
hi all,

below is a thread on asian characters support in GRASS which
will become feasible with a small change proposed by Artemis.
Huidae Cho has already implemented related improvements into
v.digit etc. It seems that the fix would help various people
so we should include it.

Read on below for details. Huidae, in case of no objections by
the others, could you update this in CVS?

Thanks

 Markus
