NAME

g.pushregion.sh
g.popregion.sh
g.clearregion.sh - Manage a stack of region definitions.
(GRASS Shell Script)

SYNOPSIS

g.pushregion.sh
g.popregion.sh
g.clearregion.sh

DESCRIPTION

g.pushregion.sh and g.popregion.sh are UNIX shell scripts to temporarily save and restore region definitions (i.e. 'WIND' files.) A 'stack' of regions is maintained automatically. Up to 10 regions may be pushed. g.clearregion.sh clears the region stack without affecting the current region.

OPTIONS

None.

NOTES

The 'stack' is really just saved regions with special names. The stack region files are named _PUSH_POP_.n, where n is incremented and decremented for each push/pop.

Trying to push more than 10 regions, or popping an empty stack will result in an error message.

FILES

$LOCATION/windows/_PUSH_POP_.[0-9]
