Update r.color manual

[Nikos Alexandris]

In the manuals for r.colors, versions 7.2 and 7.3 it reads

One can get a rough idea of the applicability of a colour table by reading the corresponding rules file ($GISBASE/etc/colors/<name>).

Please update the path to $GISBASE/lib/gis/colors/<name>.

I guess this applies to all 7.x series?

[Nikos Alexandris]

I guess the users should indeed look in to the $GISBASE/etc/colors/ directory, not the source. Ticket does not apply.

Doesn't r.colors.out do the job? Maybe we should highlight that.

[Nikos Alexandris]

Would it make sense to merge down r.colors.out to r.colors? The former's option rules could then be named output in the latter.

And, what about a simple flag that will print out the color rules in the console, instead of a file?

This would be a new ticket. Perhaps for G8?

... also part of the new ticket?
