Radomir,

Propably QGIS crashed when you edited the vector. No worries - you most
likely didn't loose any data. Everything you edited until the crash is
should be still there.

To resurrect the vector do "v.build your_broken_vector". If the output
of that command includes a warning about an too big coor file, open
your_broken_vector in eg. v.digit, and close it - this will fix it for
good.

Better use one of the archive search engines for GRASS lists, eg.
