I need to export a (large) grass raster map into some kind
of format that is readable by IDRISI, which is, I'm told
accomplished with a "fixed length 1024 byte format ASCII
character file." Any suggestions as to the best/easiest
way to do this?

Thanks,

If the grass raster map is a single-byte type( 0-255 categories), run
r.compress to uncompress the map. The cell file can then be read directly as
an IDRISI image file after the document file is created.

There is also a Grass-IDRISI module that I obtained from the IDRISI folks
and have used successfully.
