+
+<dt><img src="../../etc/wx/icons/silk/information.png">&nbsp;
+  <img src="icons/gui-query.gif"> Query tool (select a map first)</dt>
+<dd>Query selected raster, RGB raster (all three map channels will be
+queried), or vector map(s) using the mouse. Map(s) must be selected
+before query.  Vector charts and thematic vector maps cannot be
+queried. The results of the query will be displayed in the console
+window,
+see <em><a href="r.what.html">r.what</a>, <a href="v.what.html">v.what</a></em>.</dd>

+  <img src="icons/gui-pan.gif"> Pan</dt>
+<dd>Interactive selection of a new center of view in the active
+display monitor. Drag the pan cursor while pressing the left mouse
+button to pan.  Panning changes the location of the region displayed
+but not the size of the area displayed or the resolution. Panning
+does <em>not</em> affect the computational region for other GIS
+processes, see <em><a href="g.region.html">g.region</a></em>.</dd>

+<dd>Interactive zooming with the mouse in the active display monitor.
+Drawing a box or just click with the mouse (left button) and zoom-in
+cursor causes the display to zoom in so that the area defined by the
+box fills the display. The map resolution is not changed. Clicking
+with the zoom-in cursor causes the display to zoom in by 30%, centered
+on the point where the mouse is clicked. Zooming resets the display
+region extents (both size and location of area displayed). It
+does <em>not</em> affect the computational region for other GIS
+processes, see <em><a href="g.region.html">g.region</a></em>.</dd>

+<dd>Interactive zooming with the mouse in the active display monitor.
+Drawing a box or just click with the mouse (left button) and zoom-out
+cursor causes the display to zoom in so that the area displayed
+shrinks to fill the area defined by the box. The map resolution is not
+changed. Clicking with the zoom-out cursor causes the display to zoom
+out by 30%, centered on the point where the mouse is clicked. Zooming
+resets the display region extents (both size and location of area
+displayed). It does <em>not</em> affect the computational region for

+<dd>Automatic zoom settings menu. Zoom to match the extents of a selected
+map, zoom to match the computational region (set with
+<em>g.region</em>), zoom to match the extents of a saved region or
+save the current extents to a named region file, or to set
+computational region (the mapset's <tt>WIND</tt> file) to match the
+current display extents (does not change the resolution).

+<dd>Interactive measurement of lengths defined with the mouse. The
+length of each segment and the cumulative length of all segments
+measuered is displayed in the command output window frame. Lengths are
+measured in the current measurement unit,
