GRASS 5.3 modules porting status to 6.0
All modules NOT listed here have kept their name in GRASS 6.0 (maybe flags/parameters are modified, though). The list below gives hints for modules not found in 6.0.
The overall aim in 6.0 is to increase the module cohesion and to minimize replicated code. Also obsolete code is no longer maintained. The user interface is simplified in this sense while many modules are becoming more powerful due to the heavily improved vector engine and DBMS integration.
Please note that GRASS commands no longer overwrite existing maps. To enforce overwriting (instead of using another file name or in advance g.rename or g.copy), use the flag '--o'.
[Status: January 2005 ]
Display modules
Nearly all non-obsolete modules ported.
- d.menu - ported in GRASS 6.1
- d.3d - obsolete and replaced by NVIZ
- d.area - merged into d.vect
- d.colormode - obsolete
- d.db - d.vect (sites obsolete)
- d.display - obsolete
- d.fix.ortho - functionality is covered in i.points or i.vpoints
- d.icons - obsolete (sites replaced by vector points, d.vect)
- d.label - largely replaced by d.text, d.text.freetype
- d.labels - largely replaced by v.label, d.paint.labels, d.vect

Database modules
Drivers for dbf, postgresql, mysql, and odbc come with GRASS. All database commands work with all these platform, depending on which driver you choose. This makes all the postgresql-specific (*.pg) obsolete. Examples of replacement commands shown for v.*.pg commands.

- g.select.pg - implemented as db.select
- g.stats.pg - implemented?
- g.table.pg -implemented as db.table
- db.createdb - can be created in other ways (PG, OpenOffice etc)
- db.databases - implemented as db.tables

- d.what.db - implemented as d.what.vect, db.select
- v.to.pg - implemented as v.to.db
General commands
- g.help - obsolete (all help files html/man)
