Or, if some other data type applies G_make_grey_scale_colors() based on the range. I would suggest that this be changed to not create any color table if none is provided. (and so act like other grass modules do in that case and fall back to rainbow rules) Hamish _______________________________________________ grass-user mailing list grass-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-user
