NAME

       v.convert.all   -  Converts  all  older versions of GRASS vector maps in current mapset to
       current format.

KEYWORDS

       vector, import

SYNOPSIS

       v.convert.all
       v.convert.all help
       v.convert.all [-r]  [--verbose]  [--quiet]

   Flags:
       -r
           run non-interactively

       --verbose
           Verbose module output

       --quiet
           Quiet module output

DESCRIPTION

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

NOTES

       Vector  maps  from  5.0/5.3/5.4  and  6.0  do  not interfere. They are stored in different
       directories, so you can use the same names. Old vector maps  can  be  listed  with  g.list
       oldvect.

       If you need to convert back from 6.0 into the 5.0/5.3/5.4 vector format, use v.out.ogr (to
       SHAPE  format)  and  then  v.in.shape  in  the  old  GRASS  program.   Alternatively   use
       "v.out.ascii -o" and v.in.ascii.

       As  this  GRASS version uses SQL for attribute management, there are some SQL restrictings
       concerning the file names.  This script changes dots (e.g. "foo.bar") in  old  vector  map
       names into underline(s) (e.g. "foo_bar").

EXAMPLE

       To convert all old vector maps in the current mapset to the new vector format:

       v.convert.all -r
