[GRASS-user] v.in.geonames not importing txt file in GRASS 7.0.0beta3 Windows

[RichardCooper]

Hi,

I replaced the geonames script in my existing 7.0.0beta3 installation (I'm
using this version on my computer for teaching this week) and it imports
fine. I do notice however that in the Map Display, the Thai characters of
the 'alternatename' field are not displaying correctly in the query results
window (pls see below). However, Thai characters are correctly displayed in
the imported file's attribute table.

Query results of one point in Map Display:
