[GRASSLIST:4697] v.in.ascii and dig_cats file

[David Orme]

Hi,

I'm trying to create a vector file through v.in.ascii, following the 
template files in Example 1 from the v.in.ascii manual page:

http://grass.itc.it/grass57/manuals/html57_user/v.in.ascii.html

How does the category input from dig_cats work? There was a similar
thread last week started by Ian MacMillan but I didn't see a solution to
getting a dig_cats file working. I've appended head output for the
ascii, att and cats files that I have created, in case there is problem
there.

(Recent build of Grass 5.7 running on RHEL 3).

Many thanks,

David
