.SH DESCRIPTION
\fIg.remove\fR allows the user to remove specified data
base element files from the current mapset.  
.SH EXAMPLE
For example, the below command will cause the raster maps
named \fIsoils\fR, \fIslope\fR, and \fItemp\fR,
the vector maps named \fIroads\fR and \fIrail\fR,
and the
imagery group files
named \fInhap.1\fR and \fInhap.2\fR, and these files'
associated support files (e.g., cell header files, category
files, etc.), to be removed from the user's current
mapset.

.SH NOTE
If a particular data base element file has support files
associated with it (e.g., as is commonly the case with
raster maps), \fIg.remove\fR will remove these support
files along with the data base element file specified.
.PP
The user can only use \fIg.remove\fR to remove data
files existing under the user's \fIcurrent mapset\fR.
.PP
 
To remove multiple files, the script \fIg.mremove\fR may be used.
.SH FILES
$GISBASE/etc/element_list lists the element 
types whose files can be removed by the user.
