[Qgis-user] v. in ogr missing from sextante toolbox

[Bernd Vogelgesang]

Hi Victor,
i also missed this feature and obviously you are not aware of the advanced  
function of v.in.ogr and i think thats what Claire means.
I also use this for cleaning bad topologies as a first step cause there  
are no features directly accessible from qgis.
With the advanced settings, you can tell grass to snap features within a  
threshold or eleminate areas smaller than a certain value while importing  
the layer.
This is really handy to clean the worst errors from the beginning (maybe  
there are better tools for that, but i use this in 100% of the cases i am  
confronted with digitized material, despite the overhead of dealing with  
the grass region/mapset/location-stuff).

Cheers
Bernd
