[GRASS-user] Re: grass-user Digest, Vol 25, Issue 17

1) are you sure you have the ogr2ogr gdal utility?
2) you might try Python instead of bash

Hi,

This simple script doesn't seem to work on my cygwin bash

for i in *.shp; do
ogr2ogr -f "ESRI Shapefile" -where "ELEVATION>10" $i_elev $i;
done

I'm trying to extract elevation contour lines from a couple of shapefiles
I know it worked before on my linux.

cheers,
maning
