[GRASSLIST:5206] g.region help

[Kevin Slover]

I am having a bit of a dilemma, and I am sure there is any easy way to
resolve it...I hope...

I am currently importing what will soon be 4000+ arcview grid files
using the r.in.arc command.  However, the raster produced encompases the
entire pre-set region.  Is it possible to set the region via the input
file?  I know there is a g.region rast=<filename>, but the raster must
already be present...Any ideas?
