If the output map is specified by an option whose "gisprompt" setting includes "new", g.parser will automatically ensure that it doesn't exist unless --o[verwrite] is given or $GRASS_OVERWRITE == 1. Also, if --o is passed to the script, GRASS_OVERWRITE will be set automatically, so any commands invoked from the script will overwrite output maps. -- Glynn Clements <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ grass-dev mailing list [email protected] http://grass.itc.it/mailman/listinfo/grass-dev
