Just as an example: I was trying to find the definition of the Map_info
structure. It's not in data structures...

In its current form, you need to know in which file a function is and
where this file is in the directory structure to easily find it.
... well I just saw that if you go into "Globals" you have an index, I
have to admit that I never thought of looking there... (but still no
Map_info structure definition)

I guess, I'll just have to find that time to really dig into it more and
get used to GRASS' library structure.
