g.list

NAME

g.list - Lists available GRASS data base files of the user-specified data type to standard output.
(GRASS File Management Program)

SYNOPSIS

g.list
g.list help
g.list [-f] type=datatype [mapset=name]

DESCRIPTION

g.list allows the user to list user-specified, available and accessible files from mapsets under the user's current location.

OPTIONS

When invoked simply as g.list, the program prompts the user for the type of data to be listed from all mapsets in the user's current mapset search path. The user can list files from a mapset not listed in the current mapset search path by running the program non-interactively, specifying the (optional) flag setting and parameter values on the command line. Program flag and parameters are described below.

Flags:

-f: Returns a verbose file listing, that includes map TITLEs.

Parameters:

type=datatype

The type of data to be listed.
Options: (listed in bold)

rast: Raster files
vect: Binary vector files
icon: Paint icon files
labels: Paint labels files
sites: Site list files
region: Region definition files
group: Imagery group files

mapset=name

The name of a mapset to be searched for files of the specified type. Any mapset name under the current location, whether or not it is listed in the user's current mapset search path, can be specified.
Default: If unspecified, files of the specified type from all mapsets in the user's current search path will be listed to standard output.

NOTES

If the user requests that files from a mapset to which access has been restricted (see g.access) be listed, no files from this mapset will be listed.
