thought that using the file option will prevent one from hitting open
files limit and the size limit of command line arguments. Am I
misunderstanding the r.series helpfile?
the file option prevents too long command lines: instead of providing
hundreds of map names as input, only one file with the map names is
provided
the manual is wrong:
Use the /file/ option to analyze large amount of raster maps without
hitting open files limit and the size limit of command line arguments.
must be
Use the -z flag to analyze large amount of raster maps without hitting
open files limit and the /file/ option to avoid hitting the size limit
of command line arguments.
Ah, yes, I totally forgot about that flag. Thanks (also Anna and
Veronica). Perhaps somebody with write permission can correct his in the
manual page?
