DESCRIPTION

33       v.what Outputs the category number value(s) associated with user-speci‐
34       fied  location(s)  in  user-specified vector map layer(s).  This module
35       was derived from the d.what.vect module  by  removing  all  interactive
36       code and modification of the output for easy parsing.
