       The GRASS program _v_._o_u_t_._d_l_g_._s_c_s allows the user to convert
       GRASS  vector data to DLG-3 Optional format, for export to
       other systems, just as _v_._o_u_t_._d_l_g does.	However,  a  flat
       ASCII  file  of	labels	and their coresponding dlg record
       numbers is created.  This flat file is used to provide the
       label information to other systems, since most do NOT sup-
       port text attributes in a DLG import.


       The user can run the program non-interactively by specify-
       ing  all  program  arguments  on  the command line, in the
       form:


       vv..oouutt..ddllgg..ssccss iinnppuutt==_n_a_m_e oouuttppuutt==_n_a_m_e






   PPaarraammeetteerrss::
       iinnppuutt==_n_a_m_e
	      Name of the binary GRASS vector  data  file  to  be
	      converted to DLG-3 format.

       oouuttppuutt==_n_a_m_e
	      Name  to	be  assigned to the DLG-3 Optional format
	      output file created.



       If the user does not give the names of an input and output
       file on the command line, the program will prompt the user
       to enter these names.

NNOOTTEESS
       The _v_._o_u_t_._d_l_g_._s_c_s program requires that the  _i_n_p_u_t  vector
       map  layer  have  full  topological information associated
       with it.  This means  that  the	GRASS  program	_v_._s_u_p_p_o_r_t
       should  have  been  the	last program to have effected any
       changes upon the vector map layer before it is run through
       _v_._o_u_t_._d_l_g_._s_c_s.	If  this  is  not the case, _v_._o_u_t_._d_l_g_._s_c_s
       will terminate with a message that _v_._s_u_p_p_o_r_t needs  to  be
       run.


       The  output  from  _v_._o_u_t_._d_l_g_._s_c_s  will be placed in _$_L_O_C_A_-
       _T_I_O_N_/_d_l_g.  The output flat file	from  _v_._o_u_t_._d_l_g_._s_c_s  will
       also be placed in _$_L_O_C_A_T_I_O_N_/_d_l_g, with the extension ".att"
       attached to the same output name.
