Hi grassers!

I am using grass for making maps regarding to vegetaiong ecology and grazing 
cattle. (watch out for some maps in an upcoming special issue of Landscape 
and Urban Planning, Sickel Norderhaug & Sickel) Well, back to business.. one 
of my data sets are gps tracks of the cattle, I would like to be able to make 
some black and white maps with different tracks on, but I am not able to dig 
out anything about using other icons than the default square, the 
documentation on ps.icon is sparse, and I am not able to find any examples 
anywhere. Have I overlooked something at the grass-site? I was a bit 
surprised that there is nothing like an icon-repositiory somewhere, I do not 
need anything fancy (although a cow-track would have been great :-) ), just 
some Xs , circles, triangles,or preferably, a pointer to how to make my own 
icons (which I then would glady give back to the grass-community)
