[GRASS-user] v.edit does not copy attribute?

[maning sambale]

I tried this:

v.edit map=map2 bgmap=map1 tool=copy bbox=188716,1353547,341637,1499539 -e --o

but the attributes table from map1 are not copied.  Tried adding
attributes  with v.distance an v.category

v.extract doesn't have the bbox feature

-- 
cheers,
maning
