[GRASS-user] v.overlay with atype=point?

   Is it possible to intersect (v.overlay operation=and) a points map and an
areas map? I'd like to remove all points not within the area, yet the manual
page indicates only lines and areas can be assigned to atype.

   Suggestions?

How about v.select ? Either with the standard overlap operator and the -r flag, or if you're version of GRASS is compiled with GEOS, you can use the within, disjoint, etc operators.
