outline of region (wish list)

does anyone know of a way to display an outline of
the current region (quickly)? much like d.frame outlines
the current frame. maybe a -s option to
g.region (to "show" region)? I could probably whip
up a shell script to write a vector file, but ...

Hi,

I have a simple scripts called d.region. You can run it by typing
d.region color, where color on eof the grass standard colors.

#!/bin/sh
COLOR=$1
if [ "$COLOR" = "" ]
then
        COLOR=black
fi

eval `g.region -g`
d.mapgraph color=$COLOR << EOF
move $w $s
draw $e $s
draw $e $n
draw $w $n
draw $w $s
EOF
