v.what anybody?

Thanks Darrell - it looks like you did (modify d.what.vect to
give it the option of working from the command line) exactly
what I had planned to do. I'll see if I can re-activate the area
queries as well.

Cheers Simon

Has anyone written a command v.what? It should give the
category/attribute of -a the area within which a point falls,
or -l the nearest line/area-edge to the chosen point.
ie a non-interactive version of d.what.vect.

didn't catch the original, but see:

I am trying to output a legend with p.map.new. My other scripts work
if I don't include a legend. But I dump core if I do include a legend.
I am running the new floating point version on a Dec Alpha (and it also
failed on MachTen/Power macintosh).

Any ideas?

(p.map does not have a legend parameter and I specifically want to
create ppm not postscript)
