Subject: s.in.ascii man page says site file delimiter is user controlled
Platform: GNU/Linux/i386
grass obtained from: Mirror of Trento site
grass binary for platform: Compiled from Sources
GRASS Version: GRASS 5.0.0pre1 (May 2001)
the s.in.ascii man page says
GRASS 5.0 internal sites format in sites_list/
If the user wants to directly generate site files, the
following information can be used:
Each line of the ascii input file should contain either
two or three coordinates (x,y and optionally z) separated
by a user-selectable field-delimiting character. After
the coordinates there are optional attribute fields sepa
rated from the coordinates and from each other with the
same user-selectable field delimiter.
****Is it really "user-selectable"?
Not according to man sites.format.
It is a "|" [which makes things tough for big5 chinese] |

Yes, that's what the "fs=..." parameter is for.
> Not according to man sites.format.
That describes the *internal* format of GRASS site maps, which isn't
relevant to the end user.

I repeat: that part of the s.in.ascii man page was no longer
discussing the input to s.in.ascii, but had begun discussing the
internal format!!:
------------------
GRASS 5.0 internal sites format in sites_list/
If the user wants to directly generate site files, the
following information can be used:
Each line of the ascii input file should contain either
two or three coordinates (x,y and optionally z) separated

the coordinates there are optional attribute fields sepa
rated from the coordinates and from each other with the

I've just rewritten and reorganized most of the s.in.ascii man page, including
the section concerning this bug. It was in pretty shocking shape considering
it is the first thing many people see after they finally get GRASS installed
and running. First impressions and all.
Please have a read through the new version in CVS and share any comments or
criticisms, otherwise I consider this bug resolved.
enjoy,
Hamish
