window - Now obsolete, this term was used in (at least) two senses in pre-4.0 versions of GRASS. The term geographic region replaces the term geographic window, to denote a rectangular portion of a larger mapped area; e.g., a rectangle surrounding Colorado and excluding other geographic areas from analysis and/or display.

The term graphics display frame replaces the term graphics window, to denote the changing of the display area on the graphics monitor. The setting of the geographic region can affect the data contained in the user's dataset, while the setting of the graphics display frame affects only the display and printing of data.
