Subject: Region windowing for vectors

Platform: Solaris2.X/Sparc
grass obtained from: CVS
grass binary for platform: Compiled from Sources

I would like to be able to output vectors windowed to the current region. The current best way to do this is through either v.select or v.overlay, but neither of these quite does the trick when it comes to 3D vectors.

Certain functions, like v.delaunay, have a -r switch to window the vector to the current region, and it would be nice if v.out.ascii had the same switch.

Are you trying to crop by elevation as well as x,y extent?

Certain functions, like v.delaunay, have a -r switch to window the
vector to the current region, and it would be nice if v.out.ascii had
the same switch.

v.in.region + v.overlay/v.select is the general way.

If I understand correctly, you would like v.in.region to get a "-3" flag
to import a 3D region cube, and then have v.overlay and/or v.select
respect the z value?
