Comment:

 I've just added a new ''v.in.lines'' wrapper shell script into the svn
 addons repo.

 after suitable testing and porting to python it should be added into the
 main archive, as what it wraps (v.in.mapgen -f) is not at all obvious for
 the task.

 known bug/feature: if you specify a fs=[not whitespace] when there is
 really whitespace as the fs it will still work. shrug.

 intentional but subtle feature: if you pass 2D data to it and use the -z
 flag to make a 3D vector line the z coordinate will be populated with 0s.


 enjoy,
 Hamish
