hi, i recently got your note discussing problems setting
a default region after having created a new location and mapset.
Each GRASS location directory must have a mapset named PERMANENT
...
...
commands (mkdir, etc.), as you probably did. You might want to
get into grass and use "g.help" to read the section on
"setting up a grass database: locations and mapsets".
Thank you very much for helping me finguring out this problem.
Now I don't have have problem with region. I thought the 'g.help'
functon of GRASS4.0 is same as the 'help' function in 3.0 and
didn't bother to take a look. Only after reading your message,
I found it quite informative and useful. Thanks again.
Happy New Year!
