[GRASS-user] g.region, problem with projection

[Andreas Neumann]

Hi Glynn,

Here is what my WIND file looks like:

proj:       99
zone:       0
north:      1
south:      0
east:       743000
west:       707000
cols:       36000
rows:       1
e-w resol:  1
n-s resol:  1
top:        206000
bottom:     182000
cols3:      36000
rows3:      1
depths:     24000
e-w resol3: 1
n-s resol3: 1
t-b resol:  1

-------

When creating the location and MAPSET I used epsg 21781 (the Swiss 
coordinate system).

Then I checked the output of the env command. There is neither a 
WIND_OVERRIDE environment variable set, nor a GRASS_REGION variable.

Do you see something wrong in my WIND file?

Thanks,
Andreas
