Hello

I've run into a problem trying to use v.patch and r.patch. I've tried
through the GIS manager GUI and the command line shell and get a window
pop-up saying "Couldn't execute 'v.patch': invalide argument". I've tried to
use this to combine several files of the same data format with no luck.
Anybody have any idea what the problem might be.

Thanks

K. Brookes

This is a Vista issue. My students had the same problem on Vista but not on XP. I thought that these were fixed in winGRASS some time back. Can someone confirm if this is an out of date binary or something else?

Thanks
Michael

Well, we desperately need a GRASS 6.4.0RC1 built for Windows.
Any volunteer here to compile and package it?
