[GRASSLIST:1447] drawing only selected lines from TIGER import

I am trying to figure out how to draw only certain line segments from a
TIGER line file that I imported with v.in.tig.basic. I have the entire
county in a vector file but want to draw just one street.

Are there any tools to do this with?

Do I need to write my own program?

Do I need to investigate the database programs in order to make this
work?

d.vect.line map=name catnum=value[,value,...]
d.vect.area map=name catnum=value[,value,...]

If you don't know the cat #, try d.what.vect or v.report.
