so #typo user:~ $ grass63 grassdata/spearfish60/user11 Is meant to create: grassdata/spearfish60/user11/VAR grassdata/spearfish60/user11/WIND grassdata/spearfish60/user11/dbf/ (current CVS makes the new mapset but not the VAR and dbf/) ? I would think we should throw an error if the mapset doesn't exist (typo), and some '-n' flag is needed to create a new mapset from the command line. ? And don't create the VAR and dbf/ until needed. (why do those need to exist before any vector maps with tables are created?) ?
