[GRASSLIST:7947] some (silly?) questions on working with vector points

I have this questions on working with vector points, they may be silly..

say I have some vector points that I importes with v.in.ascii,
representing cave locations. Then I go on a field trip and find some
new caves (nice). What would be the best way to update the vector map?
I can update the table, with sql and db.execute, but then how to
update the vector?

tks

Carlos,

I'm not sure, but how about v.in.ascii to another file and v.append with the previous one? Or v.patch if you care only for geometry (as v.patch still needs not updated to Grass 5.7+).
