(and only for colors; see wish-ticket about taking range from stdin so
that it could be used with vector maps + v.colors too)

Right, I haven't updated the eq tutorial in grass svn to include it yet,
but I used the same dummy-data method to make a legend for the global eq
plots:

v.in.ascii + d.vect + some trial and error time to get the spacing correct.


this is something that the d.vect.thematic script can do for its plots,
and something I still haven't completely finished in the d.barb module-in-
development.
For ps.map hardcopy plots I think you might have to use v.buffer.
Oh, and d.vect.chart was the first module to allow bubble plots.
