Grass users -
I am sure this is a real basic question, but how does one copy
a vector or a raster layer to a tape? Since the layers are made up
of files in different directories, do I have to cpio all the directories
ie, cell,cellhd,cats, etc? Or is there a simpler way that I just haven't
discovered?
Also, does anybody know how to subsribe to the ESRI-L mailing list?
Thanks in advance.meh@geog.buffalo.edu

Margo,
It would probably be much safer to just copy the entire mapset
to tape. If you want just one raster map, vector map, or site list,
create a new mapset (when you initiate the GRASS shell),
then use g.copy to copy what you want to put on tape.
This way you'll be sure to get everything that you need.
Also, does anybody know how to subsribe to the ESRI-L mailing list?
Thanks in advance.
hmm... sort of like asking Jay Leno what channel Dave Letterman's
show is on. From your subject line, I'd guessed you cut
your teeth on A/I. maybe ask support@esri.com
