I've started using 5.7 and now when I use d.vect I get a series of
crosses at each point, instead of a series of lines connecting the
points.
I'm aware the sites and vectors have been merged in 5.7 so I suspect
I've imported my vectors as sites instead of vectors,
Sounds right. Try using 'd.vect icon=basic/circle type=point' and
'd.vect type=line' to be sure. I prefer circles to the crosses for point
data, but maybe they are too slow to draw to be the default. As is they
don't distinguish themselves from area centroids.
d.what.vect is handy as well.
Hamish, maybe you could help me here: is there a way to set the size of the circles to correspond to one of the attributes in the connected dbf file? (In my case to reflect the size of the herd seen in a specific position).
Thanks for all help so far... I'll probably pester the list a lot more.

Yes, two options:
[GRASS 5.7]
a) (for ps.map) v.buffer + v.patch in a loop
b) (for display monitor) d.vect.chart ctype=pie with one column
although this leaves a line from the radius to the edge
[5.0/5.3]
v.bubble, but it doesn't deal with overlapping circles very well.
we had created a map in grass 5.0 version and were
successful in assigning labels to different regions
of the map using the following sequence of
commands::
v.support
d.vect.labels
now we want to implement the same using grass 5.7 version, also we want
to add the labels in hindi which requires the use of UTF-8.now grass 5.7
does support UTF-8 however the above two commands hve been deprecated.We
tried the alternative v.label and d.text however unsuccessfully.Could
anyone kindly help.

You can use
d.vect display=attr attrcol=xxx
or
v.label + d.paint.labels

You may take a look at http://www.foss4g.org/FOSS4G/
the i18n version of GRASS5.0.3 can be downloaded from here.
UTF 8 support d.text d.label ps.map and tcltkgrass-i18n etc
are included in GRASS-i18n. We have successfully tested
the GRASS-i18n with Japanese and Veitnamese. We also look
forward for someone to bring out a Hindi version of tcltkgrass.
How to generate tcltkgrass menus in other languages is also
described in the above website
