       r.out.elas" exports a GRASS cell file to an ELAS raster file.

       "r.out.elas"  will  transfer  and  convert a GRASS cell file to an ELAS
       raster file. The GRASS cell file will be a 1 to 4 byte integer per ele-
       ment  file.  This  GRASS  cell file may be converted to either a 1 to 4
       byte integer per element ELAS file (default) or a 4 byte floating-point
       per  element  ELAS file. Color values will be transferred from GRASS to
       ELAS for GRASS 1 byte integer per  element  files  only.   "r.out.elas"
       only  transfers GRASS cell files that have either an unreferenced XY or
       UTM projection. Whether the GRASS cell file is either  an  unreferenced
       XY  or  UTM projection, the ELAS file created will be a UTM projection.
       "r.out.elas" will transfer the GRASS cell file based  on  the  selected
       region  and  will only transfer the portion of the GRASS cell file that
       is within that selected region.	"r.out.elas" will notify the  user  as
       to  whether the current region has the same values as the "cellhd" file
       for the GRASS cell file being  transferred  to  ELAS.  Since  the  area
       transferred to ELAS is determined by the region (WIND file) and not the
       cellhd file then the notification of a difference between  these  files
       will  indicate  that not all of the GRASS cell file will be transferred
       to ELAS. Also, this program will notify the  user  as  to  whether  the
       raster "MASK" is on or not.
