[GRASS-dev] Re: [GRASS-user] check vector geometry

[Michael Barton]

Something making things complicated is that

g.region -p 

and 

g.region -g 

return different suites of region values and also format the values
differently for latlon (-g in decimal degrees, while -p uses dd:mm:ss
format). This kind of inconsistency also occurs in other modules (e.g.
r.describe).
