Trying to test the existence of maps with g.findfile I see there is
something wrong with the command and its manual. It says the -l option
provides a list of "elements" keywords. In my case it gives the
following:
{{{
raster (raster map(s))
raster_3d (3D raster map(s))
vector (vector map(s))
label (paint label file(s))
region (region definition(s))
group (imagery group(s))
}}}
But in case I want to test if raster map foo exits (and it actually
exists) the following command says it does not:
{{{
g.findfile element=raster file=foo
}}}
whereas
{{{
g.findfile element=cell file=foo
}}}
matches the map.
In fact, the file $GISBASE/etc/element_list contains these keywords:
{{{
cell:raster:raster:raster map(s)
cellhd:header
cats:category
colr:color
hist:history
cell_misc:misc
fcell:fcell
g3dcell:g3dcell
grid3:raster_3d:3D raster:3D raster map(s)
vector:vector:vector:vector map(s)
paint/labels:label:label:paint label file(s)
windows:region:region definition:region definition(s)
group:group:imagery group:imagery group(s)
}}}
