DESCRIPTION

28       v.convert.all converts all GRASS 5.0/5.3/5.4  vectors  in  the  current
29       mapset into GRASS 6.0 vectors.
30

NOTES

32       Vector  maps from 5.0/5.3/5.4 and 6.0 do not interfere. They are stored
33       in different directories, so you can use the  same  names.  Old  vector
34       maps can be listed with g.list oldvect.
35
36       If  you  need to convert back from 6.0 into the 5.0/5.3/5.4 vector for‐
37       mat, use v.out.ogr (to SHAPE format) and then  v.in.shape  in  the  old
38       GRASS program.  Alternatively use "v.out.ascii -o" and v.in.ascii.
39
40       As this GRASS version uses SQL for attribute management, there are some
41       SQL restrictings concerning the file names.  This script  changes  dots
42       (e.g.  "foo.bar")  in  old  vector  map  names  into underline(s) (e.g.
43       "foo_bar").
44

EXAMPLE

46       To convert all old vector maps in the current mapset to the new  vector
47       format:
48       v.convert.all -r
