[GRASS5] [bug #1389] (grass) v.cutregion.sh: resultant vector file(s) Comments are garbage

[Request Tracker]

this bug's URL: http://intevation.de/rt/webrt?serial_num=1389
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Subject: v.cutregion.sh: resultant vector file(s) Comments are garbage

Platform: GNU/Linux/i386
grass obtained from: Mirror of Trento site
grass binary for platform: Compiled from Sources
GRASS Version: 5.0.0 (August 2002)

When using v.cutregion.sh, the resultant vector file, and region boundary area-vector (if saved) contain the same garbage in the vector Comments field.

Original line vector file imported with v.in.shape has no comment.

Should it grab Original Scale from the input vector as well?

eg:
v.cutregion.sh input=coastline output=milf_coastln -s -r
v.info milf_coastln
