I have recently started a project that has a lot of arcinfo coverages (.e00
type) that I have succesfully imported into Grass4.2 with m.in.e00. A very
easy task. But, besides this, I have some Arcview's views and a lot of
dbase tables with the attributes to use with the coverages. Has anybody
some experience translating this kind of files to Grass?
Any help is wellcomed

Hi Antonio,
the v.in.shape in GRASS 5 reads the attributes from Dbase tables
related to a shape file. The 4.x version doesn't.
What you can do:
- get the GRASS 5 source code, take out v.in.shape and
compile within 4.2.1
- get the GRASS 5 linux/Solaris binaries, take out
bin/v.in.shape
etc/bin/contrib/cmd/v.in.shape
and copy it to 4.x
- if still required, write me personally and I will send you
the v.in.shape package.
