[GRASS-user] simple way to get Easting and Northing coordinates of stream outlet directly from r.watershed?

Hi Stefan,

Thanks for this.  I've had a look but not tried it yet.  Just for me to 
clarify, are you suggesting that:

 1. r.stream.basins will somehow produce and output the Easting and
    Northing values of the overall outlet?
 2. r.stream.basins, will replace most of this workflow and thus the
    Eastings and Northings will not be required explicitly?

In the case of 1, I can't quite see how it will output these values?

Thanks a bunch,

J
