[GRASS5] g.region error message

[Rich Shepard]

  I've just imported several vector files using m.in.e00 (thanks, Michel!!)
and the display shows me only a small portion of the coverage area. So, I
tried to use g.region to expand the boundary, but without success.

  First, I selected "set from vector map" and gave it the name "roads".
Nothing changed. Second, I tried creating a new region. When I entered the
name, "county", for the new region, this is what I see:

Enter name for region to be created
Enter 'list' for a list of existing region files
Enter 'list -f' for a list with region values
Hit RETURN to cancel request
> county
<county>
ERROR: default region H=8D at H=8D at et

  I know this is telling me something that I should know, but I don't know
just what that is. Help greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Rich
