DDEESSCCRRIIPPTTIIOONN
       _p_g_._i_n_._d_b_f imports a dBase database table  into  PostgreSQL
       for later use with GRASS-RDBMS modules.

       You  can  also  choose to dump data from the dbf file into
       text format file for further use. In such case,

       you should type in the full Unix path to the new text file
       location when prompted.

       The  program  can  run  in  two modes: 'admin' is when the
       GRASS user has a superuser account in Postgres,

       You should choose the mode adequately.

       In the latter case, large files	can  take  much  time  to
       import (as each line would be inserted separately).
