 <H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
 
-<em>r.carve</em> takes vector stream data, transforms it to raster, and
-subtracts depth from the output DEM.

-<P>
-The program will take the vector stream data, transform them to
-raster, and subtracts a defaultdepth+additionaldepth from the DEM. If
-the given width is more than 1 cell it will carve the stream with the
-given width. With -n option it should eliminate all flat cells within
+<em>r.carve</em> accepts vector stream data as input, transforms them to
+raster, and subtracts a defaultdepth+additionaldepth from a DEM. If
+the given width is more than 1 cell, it will carve the stream with the
+given width. With the -n flag it should eliminate all flat cells within
 the stream, so when and if the water gets into the stream it will
 flow. The <em>points</em> option generates x,y,z for points which define the stream
-with the z value of the bottom of the carved-in stream. These points
+with the z-value of the bottom of the carved-in stream. These points
 can then be combined with contours to interpolate a new DEM with
 better representation of valleys.

+<H2>NOTE</H2>
 
 <em>r.carve</em> does not create a depressionless DEM because many
 depressions are in flat areas and not in the streams.
