[GRASSLIST:1202] converting e00 binary files to GRASS

GRASS GRASS user

List Members,

Let me first thank everyone who responded to my question about sdts and GRASS. I am now up and running with that. It turned out to be a file extension problem.

Now I am looking for a way to convert some DLGs that are in binary e00 format. I understand that m.in.e00 handles ascii files only. Is there a way to do this? Additionally, i have also had some troubles with v.in.shape which came up with some sort of segmentation error. Any suggestions? Thanks again for any responses that you post.

Ivan

It depends on the version of GRASS you are using. GRASS 4.x offers the
tool e00b2a to convert, in GRASS 5 m.in.e00 automatically extract
binary files and imports:

"The input file may be a compressed e00 file : m.in.e00 will automatically
recognize the format."

Additionally, i have also had some troubles with v.in.shape
which came up with some sort of segmentation error. Any suggestions?
Thanks again for any responses that you post.

Get the GRASS 5 beta9 coming the next days. David D. Gray has fixed the
module.

Hopt this helps
