> From the discussion, I gather that most of the problem is not a bug in
r.out.gdal, but rather the incapacity of certain viewers to display
certain types of data.
Yes, that's one problem, but a problem of the viewers. Standard image
viewers or editors like GIMP can only read type BYTE, and probably only 1
band or 3 bands in e.g. a tiff. Other types (e.g. INT16, FLOAT32) are not
supported by these image viewers. Not sure about the number of bands.
GIS software can usually both read, analyse, and visualize georeferenced
raster data as produced by r.out.gdal. The tiff colortable problem is
already solved. Some tests are in comment 13:
