Vaclav,

   Thanks for clarifying. For the manual page it might help to explicitly
explain the difference(s) of r.region from g.region. It looks to me that
they both do the same thing.

   Despite my years of sporatic use of grass I did not develop the habit of
checking add-ons when working on a project involving grass. Mea culpa!
You've shown me the need for a behavioral change on my part. Thanks!

Best regards,
