[GRASS-user] r.cva

2008-03-31 Thread gary
I did a fresh install of grass623. However, I forgot r.cva is an add on. I found the old threads when I did this install with Bejamin Ducke's help (AKA leading me by the nose because I'm clueless): http://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/grass-dev/2006-June/024106.html
