[GRASS5] [bug #3131] (grass) iso-8859-2 needed for attribute databases

this bug's URL: http://intevation.de/rt/webrt?serial_num=3131
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Subject: iso-8859-2 needed for attribute databases

Platform: GNU/Linux/i386
grass obtained from: Mirror of Trento site
grass binary for platform: Compiled from Sources
GRASS Version: 6.1cvs

iso-8859-2 encoding would be very appreciated by Central/Eastern Europe Grass users. That would allow us to use national letters in attributes
databases. City/geographical/species/people etc. names without national letters are often not recognizable.

The problem touches commands like:

- d.what.vect -e

- v.digit:

GRASS6.1.cvs(xy):~> g.gisenv set=GRASS_DB_ENCODING=iso-8859-2
GRASS6.1.cvs(xy):~> v.digit -n pokus
Map does not exist.
New empty map created.
cat integer , majitel varchar ( 50 )
UPOZORNÌNÍ: Výchozí ovladaè / databáze nastavena na:
            ovladaè: dbf
            databáze: $GISDBASE/$LOCATION_NAME/$MAPSET/dbf/
Could not set Tcl system encoding to iso-8859-2
Building topology ...

that's cool but I'm asking about Grass
d.what.vect and querying from the GIS Manager in particular
