v.in.arc

[Olga Waupotitsch]

In info.grass.user you write:

>Hallo,

>I am a recent GRASSuser. In our work in Hydrology we have to convert ARC/INFO

>points_in = created with UNGENERATE command with option POINT

>text_in = created with UNLOAD command in TABLES (ARC/INFO), which saves a ASCII file containing selected records and items (watersheds categories).

>But the output of v.in.arc (a vector file in GRASS format) does not contain the categories in areas.
