 <h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
 
 <em>r.pack</em> collects raster map elements and support files and
-compressed them using <em>gzip</em> algorithm for copying. The packed

+compressed them using <em>gzip</em> algorithm for copying. The resulting
+packed file can be afterwards unpacked within a GRASS GIS session
 by <em><a href="r.unpack.html">r.unpack</a></em>.
 
+Since the selected raster map is not exported but natively stored, the
+current region is not respected. Hence <em>r.pack</em> stores the entire
+raster map.
 
 <h2>NOTES</h2>
 
-Name of the pack file is determined by default from <b>input</b>
-parameter. Optionally the name can be given by <b>output</b> parameter.

 Currently only 2D raster maps are supported.
