NAME
       gshhgtograss  -	Extracting  GSHHS  and	WDBII data in GRASS-compatible
       ASCII format

SYNOPSIS
       gshhgtograss -i gshhs_[f|h|i|l|c].b [ -xminx ] [-Xmaxx ] [ -yminy  ]  [
       -Ymaxy ]

DESCRIPTION
       gshhgtograss  reads the binary coastline (GSHHS) or binary river/border
       (WDBII) and and translates it into an ASCII format suitable for	import
       into  GRASS.   It automatically handles byte-swabbing between different
       architectures.

       gshhs_[f|h|i|l|c].b
	      One of the GSHHG binary data file as distributed with the	 GSHHG
	      data supplement.	Any of the 5 standard resolutions (full, high,
	      intermediate, low, crude) can be used.  The resulting files  are
	      called dig_[ascii|att|cats].gshhs_[f|h|i|l|c].

OPTIONS
       -x     Specify a minimum (west) longitude.

       -X     Specify a maximum (east) longitude.

       -y     Specify a minimum (south) latitude.

       -Y     Specify a maximum (north) latitude.

EXAMPLES
