digit file - A file storing map data in GRASS vector format and usable by the GRASS program v.digit. Within a mapset, binary GRASS vector data are stored under the dig directory and ASCII GRASS vector data are stored under the dig_ascii directory. Category (attribute) values and labels associated with the data in the digit file are stored in separate files, under the dig_att and dig_cats directories.

NOTE: "Digit file" was the name used for vector map data files in previous releases of GRASS. A "digit file" is now referred to as a "vector file" in all GRASS 4.0 documentation.
