55 A user may access data stored under the other mapsets listed in their
56 mapset search path. However, the user may only modify data stored under
57 their own current mapset. g.copy allows the user to copy existing data
58 files from other mapsets to the user’s current mapset ($MAPSET). The
59 files to be copied must exist in the user’s current mapset search path
60 and location; output is sent to the relevant data element direc‐
61 tory(ies) under the user’s current mapset.
62
64 If the user wished to copy the existing raster file soils to a file
65 called soils.ph and to copy an existing vector map roads to a file
66 called rds.old, the user could type:
67 g.copy raster=soils,soils.ph
68 g.copy vector=roads,rds.old
69 # or even combined:
70 g.copy raster=soils,soils.ph vector=roads,rds.old
71
72 Data files can also be specified by their mapsets. For example, the
73 below command copies the raster map named soils from the mapset wilson
74 to a new file called soils to be placed under the user’s current
75 mapset:
76 g.copy raster=soils@wilson,soils
77 If no mapset name is specified, g.copy searches for the named from map
78 in each of the mapset directories listed in the user’s current mapset
79 search path in the order in which mapsets are listed there (see
80 g.mapsets).
