Since <br/> the package only uses system(), it will work as long as <br/> --interface-description returns an XML file. Plenty of examples and <br/> scripts stop working because GRASS 6 and 7 modules have different flags <br/> and/or parameter names, but in principle only for that reason. It's hard <br/> for me to check - it would be useful to have a translation table for flag <br/> and parameter names by module where changes have occurred.<br/><br/> Best wishes,<br/><br/> Roger<br/><br/> -- <br/> Roger Bivand<br/> Department of Economics, NHH Norwegian School of Economics,<br/> Helleveien 30, N-5045 Bergen, Norway.<br/> <br/></div></div></body></html>
