       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  core-
       sponding dlg record numbers is created.	This flat file is used to pro-
       vide the label information to other systems, since most do NOT  support
       text attributes in a DLG import.


       The  user  can run the program non-interactively by specifying all pro-
       gram 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.
