Hi all,
I am a Grass newbie and I'm trying to convert vector files to raster.
I tried using v.to.rast and everything works fine, except I want to get
rid of the "lineal" border from between each polygon, that is, I want all
polygons to touch each other, rather than having this artificial single
raster cell wide separation between them.
I have looked at the grass-u archives, and I've looked to see if
there are any options on the v.to.rast, but haven't found anything that
will look like it will work.Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

It sounds like you have an area edge with a line label there, or
that you have a line rather than or in addition to an area edge.
You can determine that in v.digit.
Or, if the border is category 0 (no data) then you might have
two different area edges - one for the left area and one for the
right. Areas that adjoin should have one area edge shared by both.
Once again look at it in v.digit.
Area edges themselves are not converted into a string of rasters,
but the areas on either side are converted to rasters.
