[GRASS-dev] t*. modules

[Sören Gebbert]

Hi,
The suggested naming scheme sounds reasonable. Following this scheme,
modules should named like this?:

t.*:
t.create
t.sample
t.topology
...

t.rast.*:
t.rast.aggregate
t.rast.to.rast3
t.rast.mapcalc
...

t.rast3.*:
t.rast3.mapcalc
t.rast3.extract
t.rast3.list
...

t.vect.*:
t.vect.what.strds
t.vect.observe.strds
t.vect.extract
...

Does this sounds correct and reduces confusion?

Best regards
Soeren
