Dear GRASSusers,
where can I find a list of the symbols that can be used for the 'icon'
parameter in d.vect?
Many thanks

where can I find a list of the symbols that can be used for the 'icon'
parameter in d.vect?
[GRASS 6.1-cvs, not sure what shows up in 6.0]
They are listed on the d.vect help page,
http://grass.ibiblio.org/grass61/manuals/html61_user/d.vect.html
(really need to make up a graphic of all of them for the help page)
or you can check what is installed,
GRASS> ls $GISBASE/etc/symbol/*
basic/arrow1
basic/arrow2
basic/box
basic/circle
basic/cross1
basic/cross2
basic/diamond
basic/marker
basic/octagon
basic/point
basic/pushpin
basic/star
basic/triangle
basic/x
demo/muchomurka
demo/smrk
extra/4pt_star
extra/airport
extra/alpha_flag
extra/compass
extra/dive_flag
extra/half-circle
extra/target
or from the command line,
GRASS> d.vect --help
[...]
icon Point and centroid symbol
options: basic/triangle,basic/arrow1,basic/arrow2,basic/box,
basic/circle,basic/cross1,basic/cross2,basic/diamond,
basic/marker,basic/octagon,basic/point,basic/pushpin,
basic/star,basic/x,demo/muchomurka,demo/smrk,
extra/alpha_flag,extra/dive_flag,extra/4pt_star,
extra/airport,extra/compass,extra/half-circle,
extra/target
default: basic/x
then there are some more on the wiki, including instructions on how to
make your own:

You can install them with the rest or in your local mapset:
$MAPSET/symbol/custom/icon_name
