Hi Helena,
It looks like the '|' is partly to blame, but not entirely.
If I use the original file with missmatched numbers of fields between
records AND use the '|' separator, I have trouble on my Mac.
However, if I fix the file so that all records have the same number of
fields (keeping '|' as separator) OR I leave the file with messed up
fields but replace '|' with ',' it works fine.
So it seems more a problem of reading the '|' separator in the text file
in some circumstances than it does having it in the command string.
Just to make sure: I don't think Helena meant that the '|' as separator
causes any problems. It's the fact that you use
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
with fs=| where | is unquoted and thus interpreted as pipe command.
