[GRASS-dev] FW: [grass-code I][355] A lot of <defunct> processes around while working - Georectifier

[Michael Barton]

I just looked at georect.tcl

All 'open' calls to g.region are to return values and are followed by
closes. So I'm not sure where this is from.

Using the georectifier does also use the map display. So maybe it is due to
the issue I just fixed by switching open to exec for calling g.region in the
set_wind procedure.
