DESCRIPTION

   r.support allows the user to create  and/or  edit  raster  map  support
   information.  Editing  of  raster  map  color  tables, category labels,
   header, history, and title is supported. Category labels  can  also  be
   copied from another raster map.

NOTES

   If  metadata options such as title or history are given the module will
   run  non-interactively. If only the map name is  given  r.support  will
   run interactively within a terminal shell and the user with be prompted
   for input.

   Freeform metadata information is stored in a "hist" file which  may  be
   appended  to  by using the history option. Currently this is limited to
   50 lines of text with a maximum line length of 78 characters. Any input
   larger  than this will be wrapped to the next line.  All other metadata
   strings available as standard options are limited to 79 characters.
