Hi,

2009/1/22 Hamish <[email protected]>:
slightly-related, but before I forget, I had an idea about the "adding where= SQL queries to all vector modules in gr7" wish. hijack the parser
with a semi-colon.

for example:
v.module input="roads; WHERE surface IS 'gravel'"

hm, this would complicate GUI dialog. I would prefer to add 'where'
parameter to the all modules (also 'cats', 'bbox') - similar to v.edit
selection parameters and not to mix map names with where statement. I
know more work, anyway some changes in the GIS and Vector library
would make it easier.

I definitely agree with Martin from a GUI standpoint.
