       _d_._s_i_t_e_._l_a_b_e_l_s performs interactive placement of labels for
       a  GRASS  _s_i_t_e_s___l_i_s_t  on  the  current  graphics  monitor.
       Labels can be chosen from the  category	value,	a  double
       attribute  or  a  string  attribute, the coordinates, or a
       dimension.  The default uses the first  string  attribute.
       The  _i_n_d_e_x is a number greater than zero for the attribute
       to use as a label.  The	user  may  select  the	position,
       color  and  sizing  of  the labels.  Labels are only drawn
       within the current region.


       This program can  be  run  non-interactively  or  interac-
       tively.	 If the user gives the name of a GRASS _s_i_t_e_s___l_i_s_t
       and (optionally) any other parameters, the command will be
       run  non-interactively.	 Any  parameter  left unspecified
       will be set to its default  value  (see	below).  Alterna-
       tively,	the  user  can	type _d_._s_i_t_e_._l_a_b_e_l_s at the command
       line and be prompted for the parameter  values  using  the
       standard GRASS _p_a_r_s_e_r interface.

   PPaarraammeetteerrss::
       --mm     Use the mouse to place labels interactively. If the
	      user chooses no, this program behaves similarly  to
	      d.sites.label.

	      Default: _N_o

       ffiillee==_n_a_m_e

	      set to _c_a_t or _c_o_o_r_d_s.
