output output Not stated
distance length Not stated
unit units m = meters; ft = feet; us-ft = surveyfeet; km = kilometers; mi = miles

Differences from the operation

  • v.split cuts lines into pieces; this mapping sets flag n, which adds the vertices without cutting. Flag f instead makes the pieces exactly the given length, except the last.
  • vertices instead sets the most vertices a segment may have.
