[GRASS-user] Hydrological grass question: main channel length for each subbasin

[Michel Wortmann]

Thanks Tom,
this is what I meant by looping over each subbasin, but that is exactly 
what I would like to avoid as it would take a lot of time for 1000+ 
subbasins and I dont really need all the other analysis.

Cheers,
Michel
