IIUC, it is as follows:

1st argument -> new (for new maps?), old (for existing maps?), output
(for exported files?)

2nd argument -> directory name within the grass-db

Q: is it always "cell" for raster maps? what about floating point maps?
For example "grep -Fr "#% gisprompt" * | grep fcell" in grass_trunk
source doesn't return anything. I've seen only "cell" entries.

3rd argument -> type (e.g. raster, vector, color)

(Probably I don't understand it correctly)
