[GRASSLIST:7076] Re: DXF to Grass dataset

[RAVI KUMAR]

Hi Hamish,
Text drawn inside a polygon (inscribed text) in a DXF
file
Imported in GRASS should be taken as THE POLYGON'S
ATTRIBUTE

IS THIS POSSIBLE IN GRASS6 NOW?
If, S, may be i need to know some commands prompted.

Thanks in anticipation
Ravi
