[GRASS-user] GSHHS shoreline import AddOn

Hi list,

there is a new module in GRASS-AddOns to import GSHHS shorelines (Global Self-consistent, Hierarchical, High-resolution Shoreline Database) named v.in.gshhs. Actually this module is not new, it is resurrected and now works with grass 6.4.
svn co https://svn.osgeo.org/grass/grass-addons/vector/v.in.gshhs/
These shorelines are available at ftp://ftp.soest.hawaii.edu/pwessel/gshhs/ and are also part of GMT (Generic Mapping Tools) http://gmt.soest.hawaii.edu/

Markus, I included you in the list of authors in the description because you updated the module in 2005. If you're not happy with it, let me know or delete your name.

Nice! I look forward to trying it out.

I notice that the newlines in the source code are all messed up.
After fixing, use "svn propset svn:eol-style native main.c" etc.
see http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/wiki/HowToSVN#Fileproperties

use 'svn proplist file.ext' for similar existing modules for hints.

Oops. I sort of "inherited" the code, didn't check newlines, worked on it, ran tools/grass_indent.sh and assumed everything would be fine but it wasn't. It should be all fixed now.
