[GRASSLIST:5987] defining grass location

GRASS GRASS user

hi again,

i had to define a location in grass using the epsg standard 24600

exactly:
+proj=lcc
+lat_1=32.5
+lat_0=32.5
+lon_0=45
+k_0=0.998786407767
+x_0=1500000
+y_0=1166200
+ellps=clrk80
+units=m

my problem is that grass won`t accept 32.5 or 32,5 nor 32:5

Enter First Standard Parallel [lat_1] (33N) :32.5N

        ** 32.5N is invalid for latitude **

    Enter First Standard Parallel [lat_1] (33N) :32,5N

        ** 32,5N is invalid for latitude **

    Enter First Standard Parallel [lat_1] (33N) :32:5N

        ** 32:5N is invalid for latitude **

or is it possible to say the location is epsg 24600 (suppose not or) ?

best regards

heiko

It should be either 32.5 (with -32.5 being the South equivalent) or 32:05:00N
