Hello there.  Yes I am a novice to GRASS and knowledge is indeed a
dangerous thing.  That out of the way, here are my problems.

Within v.digit, I am trying to assign a label to an area.  The screen
shows the correct color to represent this particular area as such, and
the node associated with it seems to be as expected too.  When assigning
a label within, however, it claims "Could not create area".  Now
according to the v.digit manual, this happens when lines overshoot or
undershoot; yet, one can zoom in on every single vertex of this area and
not find such a place.  To display lines from the node shows that this
particular node has two areas associated with it, not overlapping each
other except for the fact that they are side-by-side.  Methinks the
problem lies there, but I don't know for sure; I actually wonder if that
*is* a problem to v.digit /* disclaimer in first paragraph :-) */ 

We've tried snapping the line back to that same node, which doesn't and
I presume shouldn't alter its appearance, thinking maybe it might still
be escaping our attention and good senses.  That occurs without error.
We tried re-typing the line as both an area or a line, and that doesn't
seem to cause a problem.  Nor foster a solution!  Shrug.

Perhaps someone with some better experience in these things could offer
a bit of helpful advice?  Our platform is a DecStation 3100 under Ultrix
4.3; the data is a set of land-use land-cover polygons.  All has gone
reasonable to this point; this one's got me stumped. Many thanks in advance!
E-mail your responses directly to me as a first preference.
