When I had a similar problem, I ended up using csv file from a spreadsheet as the input file.

Hi,
for me (GRASS 6.3cvs) the import of your test data works, the syntax is
correct. Maybe you need to check your test.txt for <space> values in your
columns etc?

Hi all,

I'm unable to input  text file in GRASS using v.in.ascii.
I'm (trying) working on GRASS 6.2.1 under Ubuntu Fiesty


I have a text file (test.txt) which containing:
1|3.5|43.6|2.3
2|3.55|43.605|1.2
3|3.51|43.621|-2.3
4|3.485|43.704|56.1
5|3.498|43.5|7.1058

I would like to import it in a new layer with the following command:
cat test.txt | v.in.ascii out=test columns='nul int, x double, y double, val double' fs="|" x=2 y=3 z=0

and the outputs of that command is:

Maximum input row length: 20
Maximum number of columns: 4
Minimum number of columns: 4
column: 1  type: integer
column: 2  type: double
column: 3  type: double
column: 4  type: double
Building topology ...
0 primitives registered 0 areas built 0 isles built
Attaching islands:
Attaching centroids: Topology was built.
Number of nodes     :   0
Number of primitives:   0
Number of points    :   0
Number of lines     :   0
Number of boundaries:   0
Number of centroids :   0
Number of areas     :   0
Number of isles     :   0

So no points are imported in the layer.
I turn around that problem wich normally should work, as what I raed everywhere, but not for me !!
