<h2>NAME</h2>
<em><b>v.flip</b></em> - Flip direction of selected vector lines.
<h2>SYNOPSIS</h2>
<b>v.flip</b><br>
<b>v.flip help</b><br>
<b>v.flip</b> <b>input</b>=<em>name</em> <b>layer</b>=<em>integer</em> <b>cat</b>=<em>range[,range,...]</em> <b>output</b>=<em>name</em>
<h3>Parameters:</h3>
<DL>
<DT><b>input</b>=<em>name</em></DT>
<DD>Input vector name</DD>
<DT><b>layer</b>=<em>integer</em></DT>
<DD>Input's layer containing lines to be flipped</DD>
<DT><b>cat</b>=<em>range[,<i>range</i>,...]</em></DT>
<DD>Category ranges of lines to be flipped: e.g. 1,3-8,13</DD>
<DT><b>output</b>=<em>name</em></DT>
<DD>Output vector name</DD>
</DL>
<h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
<em>v.flip</em> is a Bash and Awk script. The <B>output</B> vector contains all lines that have a category in the given <B>layer</B> of the <B>input</B> vector. Lines specified in <B>cat</B> have their direction flipped.
<P>
The input layer number and category numbers are preserved in the output. If a datatable is attatched to the input vector's layer, it will be copied under the output vector's name and connected to the output vector, in the same database where the input layer's table is stored.
<H2>NOTES</H2>
Only lines with categories will be flipped. Use <B>v.category</B> to adjust category assignment first, if needed.
<P>
<EM>v.flip</EM> was tested only in <em>metric</em> Locations. I can't guarantee it will work properly
in <em>latlong</em> or <em>unprojected xy</em> Locations, as <B>v.clean</B> is used internally
with a fixed snapping distance of <B><em>0.0001</em></B> for connecting flipped and non-flipped lines.
