[GRASSLIST:8911] db.select

Hello,

how can I work with db.select over the console?
When I work with the GUI its no problem. But when I copy the instruction (db.select table=vRegions database=$GISDBASE/$LOCATION_NAME/$MAPSET/dbf/ driver=dbf fs=| ) to the console nothing happens. Whats going wrong? I hope someone can help me.

Thanks a lot.

Greetings
Maik

the problem is, you are using the "pipe" character -- '|' which is used
for unix piping -- you can send results from one program to another.
    
    use simply
    
db.select table=vRegions

or

db.select table=vRegoins fs="|"

instead
