RE: [GRASS5] [bug #2238] (grass) r.series: support for wildcards in input filenames

Markus,

The r.out.mpeg calls
parse_command(argc, argv, vfiles, &numviews, &frames, &quality, &r_out);

That's the difference.

That may also true for several other modules; in which case, it might
be better to figure out how to build this into G_parser().

too, but not critical.

g.mremove is a shell script, which makes implementing shell
substitutions somewhat easier.

Note:
r.out.mpeg supports wildcards. Maybe this could be moved somehow into
the parser.

Only the standard reason: once a module becomes "official", changing
its behaviour becomes problematic.

There would be needed also a html doc file then.
Eg. extending
http://grass.itc.it/grass51/manuals/html57_user/r.series.html
(which was generated automatically).
