Dunno. Example - this I got from a user:


v.vol.rst -c input=utm3d@UTMfinish wcolumn=temp tension=10.
cvdev=cvdevmap38 maskmap=ter@UTMfinish segmax=698 npmin=699 dmin=150.0
zmult=50.0


[...]

... he told me that nothing got calculated (apparently he didn't use
g.list).
Indeed the information is quite buried in above output. Also r.watershed
with multiple output does not say much.

That's why I would see the generated map names printed out.

I understand the concern, but I wonder up to which point we have to hold the user's hand. The information is easily available in the man page.

This is as if in R you would write out information about every single output value a function gives you. In my eyes this would be horrible.

Let's leave at least part of the responsibility for understanding how to use GRASS to the user... :-)
