[GRASS-user] r.what and d.what.rast

[Dylan Beaudette]

Folks,

please keep in mind that interactive querying of the display *may* involve 
resampling (via nearest neighbor) when display size is much smaller than the 
actual size. Please see previous posts by Glynn about automatic resampling 
associated with the display architecture- especially since the incorrect 
values are coming from d.what.rast.

Cheers,

Dylan
