This is a shell script example which makes extensive use of GRASS and UNIX commands. Users are encouraged to examine this macro and develop similar on-line demos using their own data files. <H2>EXAMPLE</H2> The following command sequence shows the available raster maps, saves the view to a PNG file and then converts it into a PDF file: <div class="code"><pre> # reset region: g.region -dp # open GRASS monitor with defined size: GRASS_WIDTH=800 GRASS_HEIGHT=1000 d.mon x0 # we have around 40 maps in the Spearfish PERMANENT mapset: d.slide.show across=5 down=8 mapsets=PERMANENT # From Monitor to PNG to PDF: d.out.png out=spearfish_maps.png res=2 convert spearfish_maps.png spearfish_maps.pdf xpdf spearfish_maps.pdf </pre></div> <H2>SEE ALSO</H2> <EM> <A HREF="d.erase.html">d.erase</A><BR> <A HREF="d.frame.html">d.frame</A><BR> <A HREF="d.text.html">d.text</A><BR> <A HREF="g.mapsets.html">g.mapsets</A><BR> <A HREF="xganim.html">xganim</A><BR> </EM> <BR> <H2>AUTHOR</H2> James Westervelt, U.S.Army Construction Engineering Research Laboratory <br> Vector update, fixes: Markus Neteler <p> <i>Last changed: $Date: 2007-02-07 00:12:41 +0100 (Wed, 07 Feb 2007) $</i> <HR> <P><a href="index.html">Main index</a> - <a href="display.html">display index</a> - <a href="full_index.html">Full index</a></P> <P>© 2003-2008 <a href="http://grass.osgeo.org">GRASS Development Team</a></p> </body> </html>
