[GRASSLIST:776] Re: Problem GRASS-6.0.2

[Māris Nartišs]

Unfortunately not all GRASS modules have large file support. It is
possible, that r.in.arc is also in this list.

Q. to dev's: Is there any short how-to how check large file support in
GRASS module and how to enable it (which variables and functions
should be checked etc.)?


Maris.
