This command,
g.message -p mes='Setting region to county boundary'
produces an error: Option message does not accept multiple answers.
Using double quotation marks rather than single ones makes no difference.
What is the correct command syntax to print this message to the screen when
the command is in a script?

Just the message, without the ‘-p’ flag will work. That flag is for a progress indicator, and I’m not sure how it works

Micha,
Interesting. This morning I tried it without any flags and got the same
error message so I chose the '-p' flag as the most likely solution.
Just now, both
g.message 'this is a message'
and
g.message msg='this is a message'
worked.
I must have had an unnoticed typo when I tried it a couple of times this
morning.
Thanks,
Rich
