RE: [GRASS5] Programming manual or GIS library corrections?

No, Eric, I thought about making fixes, but I don't know LaTex
and I also was not sure I was right about these!

There's more errors than that in the programming manual. I'm sure Markus
would appreciate any corrections. Do you know LaTeX?

Hello,

Am working on revision of r.le and not very knowledgeable about
the grass5 revisions in general, so please excuse if I miss something
obvious.

I think the following are just little mistakes in the programming manual:
1. G_zero_raster_row is listed on p. 143 of latest (Nov.) revision of
programming manual, but this does not seem to be the correct name.
It seems that it is G_zero_raster_buf.

2. G_read_fp_range on p. 156. I think the correct order of the parameters
is: (char *name, char *mapset, struct FPRange). The manual lists
struct FPRange first.

3. p. 160 lists G_quant_truncate twice, but I think the second case
should be G_quant_round as that one works OK in my program, and
the description mentions rounding.

The following may be either errors in the programming manual or maybe
the GIS library?
1. G_read_raster_range is listed on p. 156, but does not work at all.
The old G_read_range works fine for CELL, and G_read_fp_range
works for float and double.

2. G_get_colors_min_max() is listed on p. 153, but does not work at all.
This one seems useful and I don't know what the substitute would be?
