Comment(by cmbarton):
I've been dealing with end of semester and traveling. Wow! A lot of words
spilled over a small suggestion to simplify parsing in code and in
commands. FWIW, the underscore makes it a *little* easier to parse and
potentially shorten (if that is desirable) the term for GRASS's unique
3D/voxel format. It also makes it a little easier to quickly differentiate
the 2D raster things (raster and raster.x) from the 3D raster things
(raster_3D and raster_3D.x). I don't find an underscore that much trouble
to type, except on my iPad where I can't run GRASS anyway.
That said, it's not a big deal to me either way. Since one is very
minimally more difficult to type than the other (1 character), I'd suggest
whichever form makes programming easier. Maybe a simple vote is needed to
move on. I'm delighted to go along with the majority so we release the
next beta
