[GRASSLIST:7646] Re: GRASS data to ArcView

[Tyler Mitchell]

What about r.out.gdal?  It will give you several options, many of which 
are supported by ArcView.  I haven't used this module, but have used 
GDAL extensively.  You may even be able to just use gdal_translate (part 
of http://fwtools.maptools.org) to convert GRASS raster straight to TIFF 
with less headache.
