GRASS Users;

A couple months ago I sent the following query:
> 
> Has anyone already developed a driver for an Altek digitizer with an AC32
> controller to use GRASS 4.1?  The AC31 driver registers a map fine, but
> locks up when digitizing lines.

I think I've found the solution.  The config files for various digitizers
are found under $GISBASE/etc/digitizers.  I copied the file al31f8_16 and
changed:

	stop
	{
    	send = \027\013       #reset
	}
to
	stop
	{
    	send = H\013          #reset
	}

I just discovered this late Friday, so extensive testing hasn't been done
yet.  I will post any other changes to the list as we find them.
