Hi, since we have this https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/pull/1674 I really think that SPIT can be dismissed. This new tool is much faster than any other option available in QGIS, and it has a lot of options. And of course it can be run in batch mode. cheers -- G -- _______________________________________________ Qgis-developer mailing list Qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer
