I've run into a problem running v.in.ascii for WinGRASS importing an

error.
Here are a couple of other pieces of information.
can you 1) run it with 'g.gisenv DEBUG=5' and 2) make the input file
and exact command line used available.
how about if you skip DB creation with '-t'?

We've used several files to test. But the main one is from the N.
Carolina demo data set, external files for import <http://
skagit.meas.ncsu.edu/~helena/grasswork/grassbookdat07/ncexternal/
schools_el_lu.txt>.
This is a messy dataset, which may be part of the cause. But OTOH, it
should behave the same way on all platforms and not cause a Windows
dbf.exe error.
v.in.ascii input=/Users/cmbarton/schools_el_lu.txt output=schools_lu
format=point fs=| skip=0 x=1 y=2 z=0 cat=3
I just tried it and saw it flash a malloc and dbmi error before it
crashed the GUI
I'll try the debug on my Mac. I don't think that will work on Windows.
