I've been trying to import both tiger data and dlg sdts format files
for the tiger data, I've been using v.in.tig.basic.
Is this the correct command? It looks like the files
needed for t1 and t2 dont correspond to what I have.
The files I have are
str49035.dbf str49035.shp str49035.shx
I see nothing telling me it's a type one or two file.
this is the console output
GRASS 5.0beta11 > v.in.tig.basic t1=str49035.dbf t2=str49035.shp out=street zone=13
Working . . .
WARNING: Extra chars found in Tiger Type 2 File--Check it.

it just kind of repeats this and makes a file street of 0 size because
I'd finally got bored and killed the process.
As for the dlg. I used v.in.sdts
The output requests a data dictionary which I located
and untarred in the same directory as the source sdts files but still
got the error.
I'm not able to find any documents telling me how I should deal with
the data dictionary.
Thanks for your help

dbf, shp, shx? It will be shapefile.
Try v.in.shape.
