Maps output by GRASS are part of the GRASS database. Each vector or 
raster is not a single file, but rather a directory which contains 
several files. Each vector map has a directory under 
$LOCATION_NAME/$MAPSET/vector/ and it might also have a dbf entry or an 
sqlite table for attributes. The parts of a raster map are split among a 
few directories: $LOCATION_NAME/$MAPSET/cats , 
$LOCATION_NAME/$MAPSET/cell , $LOCATION_NAME/$MAPSET/hist etc.
