ooh, that looks good. Very useful for interpolating data with faultlines,
I guess. However, quite the overkill for my little problem ;)

I think suggestion #1 should be implemented in v.to.rast anyway,
as it would be a functional improvement for many use cases where
attribute values from vectors are to be transferred to a raster
with DCELL/FCELL type cells.

Your second suggestion would be an alternative, additional
method with its own uses. Easily implemented, I imagine,
by letting the user control the threshold (% of cell area
crossed by line) above which a cell should be set to "1"
(or whatever). In my scenario, a pixel should be placed,
whenever the % crossed area > 0.0.
The value to place could be the line value or an average of
neighbouring cells. Both may have applications.


Best,

Ben
