It has nothing to do with the loop. g.rename does nothing if the new name is the same as the old one, ignoring case. This check was added relatively recently, to prevent it from destroying data on filesystems which aren't case sensitive. If you run the above command on a FAT or NTFS filesystem, it would simply delete the maps. [It deletes the destination first; if the destination is the same as the source (apart from case), then it ends up deleting the source.] If you want to change the case of your map names, you first need to rename the map to a name which differs by more than case, then rename it to the intended name. -- Glynn Clements <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ grass-user mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-user
