Concerning the need to be able to easily backup/share, I

think we definitely

need some module which isolates and exports a series of

chosen maps in a new

temporary mapset with a local sqlite db file, copies the

chosen maps into

this temp mapset and then creates a tarball (or zip or

whatever) with the

basic LOCATION info (i.e. a PERMANENT mapset with PROJ and

WIND files) and

the temp mapset. Shouldn't be too hard to wip up, or ?

Essentially a v.pack/v.unpack, right?

What would be really neat is if there was a way to delete, as well as archive a location from the startup screen.

Bob

You can delete or rename a location or a mapset from the wxPython startup screen.
