Re: [Qgis-user] qgis grass plugin
Paolo, Thanks for your message, I meant the qgis GRASS plugin (it seems I have too many things in my head at the same time and made a typo) , but it's good having the reference for the gdal tool as well. Also, just to let you know that your site issues the following message: trac.faunalia.it uses an invalid security certificate. Not a big problem but thought that you might want to know it. Agus Paolo Cavallini wrote: Agustin Lobo ha scritto: Who is the author(s) of the qgis gdal plugin? How should I refer to it in an article? BTW, I've not been able to find any reference to the C plugins in the web page, only the python plugins are listed. you mean this? https://trac.faunalia.it/GdalTools-plugin Now explained, thanks.
