[GRASS-user] v.profile ??

[Francesco Mirabella]

Hi Maris,
thanks for your message, that's funny! :-) I am very happy that 
v.profile will exist!
I do believe that a growing number of people can get advantages of such 
a tool, maybe especially geologists and seismologists who currently work 
with 3D vector data (also for example borehole data).

It would be nice if you could send it to me in the meantime, I will try 
to install it and try it.

best wishes
Francesco
