       vv..ttoo..ssiitteess   -  Converts  point data in a binary GRASS vector map layer
       into a GRASS _s_i_t_e___l_i_s_t_s file.

       The _v_._t_o_._s_i_t_e_s program extracts site data from a GRASS vector map layer
       and  stores output in a new GRASS site_lists file.  The resulting sites
       map layer can be used with such programs as _d_._s_i_t_e_s.  Only site (point)
       features  in  the  named vector map layer are extracted and placed into
       the resulting site list.  Lines	and  areas  in	the  vector  file  are
       ignored.

OOPPTTIIOONNSS
       The  user can run the program non-interactively by specifying the names
       of an existing vector _i_n_p_u_t map layer and a new site list  file	to  be
       _o_u_t_p_u_t  on  the command line.  The program will be run interactively if
       the user types vv..ttoo..ssiitteess without arguments on the  command  line.   In
       this  case, the user will be prompted to enter parameter values through
       the standard user interface described in the manual entry for _p_a_r_s_e_r.

       iinnppuutt==_n_a_m_e
	      Name of an existing binary vector map layer from which site data
	      are to be extracted.

       oouuttppuutt==_n_a_m_e
	      Name to be assigned to the resultant _s_i_t_e___l_i_s_t_s file.



       If  any	of  the  sites have been labeled in _v_._d_i_g_i_t then the resultant
       site list will contain category information.  If none of the sites  are
       labeled, a binary (0/1) site list file will be produced.
