       The program _v_._s_t_a_t_s will print to standard output informa-
       tion about a user-specified binary GRASS vector map layer.



   FFllaagg::
       --hh     Display header information from the vector file.




   PPaarraammeetteerr::
       mmaapp==_n_a_m_e
	      Name of the binary GRASS vector file to be queried.



       The  program  will  be  run  non-interactively if the user
       specifies the parameter value and (optionally) sets the --hh
       flag on the command line, using the form:


       vv..ssttaattss [--hh] mmaapp==_n_a_m_e



       If  the user instead simply types vv..ssttaattss without specify-
       ing program arguments on the  command  line,  the  program
       will  prompt the user to enter inputs through the standard
       user interface described in the manual entry for _p_a_r_s_e_r.

       Sample  output  follows:  Format:  Version  4.0	(Level	2
       access) (Portable)
       Number of Lines: 3
       Number of Nodes: 2
       Number of Areas: 2 (complete)
       Number of Isles: 1 (complete)
       Number of Atts : 2



       The GRASS version number is given. Parenthetical text fol-
       lowing this describes the read access level available  and
       notes  whether  or  not	the  file is in GRASS version 4.0
       portable data format.   The  access  level  indicates  the
       types  of  data	available for the named vector map layer.
       "Level 1" denotes a binary vector file (without any accom-
       panying	_d_i_g___p_l_u_s file), while "Level 2" denotes the exis-
       tence of a _d_i_g___p_l_u_s (vector topology) file for  the  named
       map layer (generally created by _v_._s_u_p_p_o_r_t).  If only Level
       1 information is available for a vector	map  layer,  only
       the  number of lines and (optionally) the file header will
       be printed to standard output.


       If all areas and islands (isles) in the vector  file  have
       been  identified (usually by _v_._s_u_p_p_o_r_t), their counts will
       be followed by "_c_o_m_p_l_e_t_e." If not, they will  be  followed
       by  "_i_n_c_o_m_p_l_e_t_e".  The _d_i_g___p_l_u_s file, which is created and
       updated by _v_._s_u_p_p_o_r_t, must exist for this  information  to
       be output.
