DESCRIPTION

       g.mapset changes the current working MAPSET, LOCATION, or  GISDBASE.   This  is  a  fairly
       radical maneuver to run mid-session, take care when running the GUI at the same time.

NOTES

       The  shell  continues to use the history for the old mapset. To change this you can switch
       the history to the new settings by commands:

          history -w
          history -r /"$GISDBASE/$LOCATION/$MAPSET"/.bash_history
          HISTFILE=/"$GISDBASE/$LOCATION/$MAPSET"/.bash_history
