[GRASS-user] a few suggestions and questions

[Carlos "Guâno" Grohmann]

Hello all

first I'd like to make a few suggestions to enhance (IMO) our favorite GIS:

- normalize the options in all modules. I noticed that while most
commands take "--overwrite", some (r.neighbors) use "-o"
- some modules require a dummy value when output a list (r.mask,
r.proj, v.proj..). Is this really necessary? this is a very confusing
option (specially for newbies).
- also, I think that _all_ fields (gui speaking now) where a
raster/vector map is to be entered should have the select button, no
matter if it is a field for new maps, because it makes the whole thing
consistent, and it is easier for new users to understant how things
work.

now some issues:

is plan curvature in r.param.scale broken? I can't get a map of it.
profc works fine. Also is it possible to make r.param.scale work in
latlong regions? (please?)

this is just out of curiosity:

if there are too many points to be used for interpolation by RST, how
does it chooses which points will be used?


thats all for now,

cheers

Carlos
