Explanations on this would quite help but they should be generated automatically: Examples: * aspect * based on degree? (it is in percent) * haxby: relative colors for bathymetry or topography * ""relative"" is given, fine * ndvi: Normalized Difference Vegetation Index colors * ... (-1.0 .. +1.0) * ndwi: Normalized Difference Water Index colors * ... (-200 .. +200) * precipitation * starts at 0, ends at 7000 * suggestion: instead of ""precipitation: precipitation color table (0..2000mm)"" which is incorrect anyway, print e.g. ""precipitation: precipitation color table [%s..%smm),min, max)"" etc. In essence: relative color tables will cover ""any"" range while absolute color tables do not. This should become clear from the description without reverse engineering the color files. Effectively, more values should be added to lib/gis/colors.desc in an automated way.",enhancement,new,normal,7.6.2,Raster,svn-trunk,,"r.colors, r3.colors, v.colors, cartography",,All,All
