[GRASSLIST:5948] Conversion from points to lines?

[Patton, Eric]

Hey,

 

Is it possible to convert vector points to lines in Grass 6.0? v.type
complained that points to lines are incompatible types. Do I have to do a
multi-step conversion from points -> centroids -> something else -> lines
instead?

 

I also tried v.build.polylines. The manual page says its possible to use
points in the input map; and the program runs cleanly with no error
messages, but no lines are built in the process. 

 

Thanks,
