DDEESSCCRRIIPPTTIIOONN
       _g_._s_e_l_e_c_t_._p_g  is	used  to identify a Postgres database for
       subsequent GRASS-RDBMS applications. If the database spec-
       ified  on  the  command line can be found _g_._s_e_l_e_c_t_._p_g sets
       the GRASS environment variable PG_DBASE to this	name.  If
       the  database is not found a list of the database directo-
       ries is provided to the user. This  program  assumes  that
       database queries have been granted to the user.
