R: [GRASS-dev] WinGRASS: r.in.gdal projection issue

[marco.pasetti at alice.it]

Hi Glynn,
 
In PERMANENT I have WIND and DEFAULT_WIND; they have Unix line endings.
PROJ_* files are missing!
 
Many thanks
 
Marco

Check the existence and contents of the following:

        <database>/test/
        <database>/test/PERMANENT/
        <database>/test/PERMANENT/DEFAULT_WIND
        <database>/test/PERMANENT/PROJ_INFO
        <database>/test/PERMANENT/PROJ_UNITS

where <database> is the GRASS database directory.

In particular, check whether the files have Unix (LF) or DOS (CR+LF)
line endings (if the files look correct in Notepad, they have DOS line
endings; with Unix line endings, you get one long line with little
black blocks).
