[GRASSLIST:2308] Re: zoom to fill GRASS monitor

[Jason Horn]

Glynn,

Thanks.  Setting the aspect ration was what I was thinking too.  Only 
problem is, my data are lat-lon, so that's not so easy since polar 
coordinates do not measure units of distance.  I'll have to re-project. 
  I'd be interested to see if any one else comes up with a different 
idea though.

Jason
