DESCRIPTION
d.bearing plots a transect from origin along a bearing theta CCW from north until a distance radius. A small tick mark is added to the end of the transect. If a value is specified for the argument output, the transect will be saved to a new vector.
Here is an example of the output. Note blue line, created with:
d.bearing origin=665736,4039451 theta=230 radius=1000 col=blue
Hints
#plot from next click
d.bearing origin=`d.where -1 | awk '{print $1","$2}'` theta=230 radius=500
#plot from point associated with cat = 222
d.bearing origin=`v.out.ascii pedons | awk -F"|" '{if($3 == 222){print $1","$2}}'` theta=230 radius=500
