[GRASSLIST:8832] Editing attribute tables for internal GRASS db

Is there any way to edit the attribute tables for a vector layer if you are using the default internal GRASS db? I know that I can set the database to an external mySQL db (for example), and then use a mySQL db tool to edit the tables. Is there any way to do it for the internal GRASS db?

Thanks,

The internal tables are in dBase format. Which means you can open them
using openoffice or microsoft office, etc. The files are located in
/path/to/grass/db/location/mapset/dbf.

(ie default dbf driver?)

Interactive:
  d.what.vect -e
  v.digit?
  qgis with grass plugin?

Script:
  db.execute
   see the example in the help page:
   http://grass.ibiblio.org/grass61/manuals/html61_user/db.execute.html

Small tables: (caution, make a backup)
  load into OpenOffice or any software that can handle the dbf format.
