[GRASS-dev] String standardization

Hello developers,

I've noticed that there is a wide range of output string formatting
throughout GRASS.  Should we standardize on how text in formatted for
various situations (warnings, errors, etc)?

For instance, I've seen mapsets displayed in '[]', '<>', or no
separation at all from the rest of the text.

Also, I see that text may begin capitalized or lower case and may or may
not end with punctuation.

As has been noted before by ESR and others, modules should be quiet by
default (I am a violator, but correcting).

Too bad we don't have a PSC. :( **nudge**
