Miguel -
I have had the same problem- I could never get a decent looking contour
map out of GRASS --
I have found that a the combination of GRASS and GMT produces very nice
looking maps in PS format. I suppose if one were savvy enough with ps.map
they could do the same, but I have never been able to make ps.map work
quite right...
here is an example of a labeled contour map;

let me know if you are interested in the code that did this.
Cheers,
Dylan

I did can obtain a map with contour lines and labels
near to but is a layer vector and when i convert to
rast (with v.to.rast) i lose the labels near to the
lines, this to can saves as a gif, or bmp image. How
can i do to save my image (vector or raster) without
lose labels and lines???

For just the borders:

Long time ago Justin Hickey wrote an improved r.contour:

-> r.contour2.tar.gz
Maybe worth looking at it (not updated to 6.0, though).
