[GRASSLIST:6494] Re: m.proj s.in.ascii s.to.rast

[Maciek Sieczka]

Hi

Sites no longer exists in 5.7+. Replaced by vector points. Thus:
s.in.ascii = v.in.ascii
m.proj2 = v.proj
s.to.rast = v.to.rast

Or go for the "old" Grass 5.4 - much improved and cleaner than 5.0, easy to 
build, and still using sites. However note that there will be no more 
developmnet in the 5.x branch, we may expect only releases fixing major 
bugs. So the sooner we users get used to new vector engine the better for us 
:).
