#544: v.info lacks -g switch ----------------------+----------------------------------------------------- Reporter: neteler | Owner: [email protected] Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: 6.4.0 Component: Vector | Version: svn-develbranch6 Resolution: | Keywords: Platform: All | Cpu: All ----------------------+----------------------------------------------------- Comment (by hamish):
I'm rather confused by this bug report. v.info already has a -g flag which reports the geographic extent in shell script style. Other shell script style flags have been added as well, indeed Markus has already used the -t flag to solve the l10n error* reported in the original post. [*] is the real error that reports should not be translated? ISTR that we had decided not to translate r.info et al.'s reports. (Personally I don't have too strong an opinion about that) Shell scripts which use awk all unset the locale to ensure that decimal places are "." not ","s and can provide a template if needed if scripts are parsing module report output which do not have a shell script flag equivalent. So what specifically is this bug report actually asking for? A switch that dumps or converts all output in shell script format? ISTR that was tried for g.region and in practice was/is a complete mess + PITA that we (IMO) shouldn't repeat. Compare that to r.info which has lots of flags for specific shell script formatted params, and seems to work well for all our shell script needs. I suggest closing this bug as "redundant".
