[GRASS-dev] grass location creation

[Jachym Cepicky]

Hi:

general/g.region/cmd/main.c:

851         if (flag.savedefault->answer)
852             if (strcmp(G_mapset(),"PERMANENT") == 0)
853                 G__put_window( &window, "../PERMANENT", "DEFAULT_WIND" );
854             else
855                 G_warning(_("You are not in mapset PERMANENT,
default region    -> remains untached"));

is it sufficient?
