<h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>

<em>v.build</em> builds GRASS support files for (binary)
GRASS vector data files.  These support files supply
topology and category information that are needed by other
GRASS programs.<BR>
GRASS is generating these support files automatically,
only in rare cases the user has to (re)build them.


<h2>NOTES</h2>

<em>v.build</em> creates support files only for binary
vector files located in the user's current mapset. If binary file 
is located in another mapset, you need to specify this:

<p>

<b>v.build map=</b><em>geology@PERMANENT</em> 
<P>
In case of errors, the user can optionally generate an error
vector map containing the erroneous vectors for later inspection.
