It is also not in the documentation. I don't know if the confusion is also on the QGIS site. Another issue is that it is in Shell, not Python, so it should not work in GRASS 7 on MS Windows as far as I understand. Finally, so revision of messages is needed, error message "Calculating $GIS_OPT_OUTFILE. Try expert mode." shown after `r.mapcalc` failed just caught my eye. > > r.mapcalculator was never converted to Python. It was deemed unnecessary now that r.mapcalc uses G_parser(). r.mapcalculator was created when r.mapcalc didn't use G_parser() which meant that it couldn't generate a GUI option dialog. > > If there's some situation where it's useful, it should be converted to Python. Otherwise, it should be removed from the 7.0 tree. +1 for removal. If there are any issues with using the grass7 r.mapcalc in other software (e.g. QGIS) then let's try to solve these issues.
