Parameters:
input=name [required]

DESCRIPTION
Imports a stream of ASCII x,y[,z] coordinates as a line or series of
lines.
NOTES
Input ASCII coordinates are simply a series of "x y" data points.
Lines are separated by a row containing "NaN NaN".
The user can import 3D lines by providing 3 columns of data in the in-
put stream and using the -z flag.
This script is a simple wrapper around the v.in.mapgen module.
