No answer for "SVGmapper" app replacement for GRASS (PyWPS?), but a
thought on how to do SVG export:  v.out.dxf + dxf2svg.

dxf2svg: (GPL) http://ucsu.colorado.edu/~squiresm/
pstoedit: http://www.pstoedit.net/pstoedit/


Also there's a long standing wish to obtain SVG + .eps converters to
use with d.graph and/or grass's display symbols:

ps.map already does simple .eps:
