$ man v.to.db
DESCRIPTION
v.to.db load values from vector to database.
Add there "or report to stdout" or something, otherwise one needs to
read deep into the man page to find out v.to.db can do that.
$ man db.execute
echo 'create table soils ("cat" int, "soiltype" text)' | db.execute
But the user will ask "I found I didn't need the double quotes".
SEE ALSO
...db.tables, GRASS SQL interface
You mean
...db.tables(1), sql(1).
$ man db.describe
Same problem as above, and also "GRASS 5.7 tutorial pages" embedded
into the man page. Best not to embed version numbers there.
$ man v.in.ascii
columns=string
Columns definition for points mode in SQL style, for example:
x=integer
Number of column used as x coordinate (first column is 1) for
points mode. Default: 1
I there a missing example, or is x=integer part of it? The user can't
tell by the indentation...
Why the billion newlines?
$ man v.in.ascii |sed '/are as follows:/,$!d'|od -c|sed 's/[0-9 ]\+//g'

$ man v.to.points
v.to.points creates points along input lines.
OK, but also mention what ends up in the database files, just the
points created, or other previous things too. And what layers they
end up on.
$ man v.db.connect
Connect vector map to database (PostgreSQL driver)
db.describe -c map=vectormap <--Remove this whole line!
P.S.:
$ ls grassdata/shangcheng/addressing/dig_att
eeee kk
I must have made them somehow, but I can't list them with
g.list. I even tried:
IFS=, set -x rast,rast3d,vect,oldvect,asciivect,\
icon,labels,sites,region,region3d,group,3dview
set $@; for i do g.list type=$i;done
[Sorry once again to send fragments, but it takes about a minute to
send each email, so tough to fit into one modem call... will use
separate messages if more than just fragments...]
