So, I'm not sure I am not sure what you are referring to. Anyway `d.mon out=` checks if the file exists. If `--overwrite` is given than the file is overwritten. If you use `--overwrite` together with `-u` flag that the file is open 'update' mode, ie. new data are rendered on the top of the existing file. This ticket is related to the fact that `d.mon` behaves differently when launched without `output` option (when using default display driver output file). -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/ticket/2509#comment:3> GRASS GIS <http://grass.osgeo.org> _______________________________________________ grass-dev mailing list grass-dev@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-dev
