   Parameters:
       input=name [required]
           Name of input file (or "-" to read from stdin)

       output=name [required]
           Name for output vector map

       separator=character
           Field separator
           Special characters: pipe, comma, space, tab, newline
           Default: pipe

DESCRIPTION

       Imports a stream of ASCII x,y[,z] coordinates as a line or series of lines.

NOTES

       Input ASCII coordinates are simply a series of "x y" data points.  Lines are separated  by
       a row containing "NaN NaN".

       The  user can import 3D lines by providing 3 columns of data in the input stream and using
       the -z flag.

       This script is a simple wrapper around the v.in.mapgen module.

       v.in.lines in=- out=two_lines separator=, <<EOF
