It shouldn't be particularly complicated to make g.region accept any combination of region=, rast=, rast3d=, vect= and zoom= (and possibly also n=/s=/e=/w=) and to set the region to the union of all of them. Actually, -d could also be used, and you might want an option to include the current region as well. -- Glynn Clements <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ grass-dev mailing list [email protected] http://grass.itc.it/mailman/listinfo/grass-dev
