       [--verbose]  [--quiet]  [--ui]

   Flags:
       -f
           Flip legend

       -n

       --verbose
           Verbose module output

       --quiet
           Quiet module output

       --ui
           Force launching GUI dialog

   Parameters:
       map=name [required]
           Name of raster map to display

       lines=integer
           Number of lines to appear in the legend

       raster=name
           Name of input raster map to generate legend from

DESCRIPTION
       d.rast.leg shows a raster map along with its legend.  It  first  clears
       the  entire  screen,  then  divides  it  into a main (left) and a minor
       (right) frames, and displays a raster map in the main frame and the map
       legend  in the minor frame. The main frame remains active when the pro-
       gram finishes.

NOTES
       The legend may be flipped with the -f flag.

       If the lines parameter is not given then the legend frame will  display
       as  many  lines  as number of categories in the map, otherwise, it will
       display the first lines minus 1 categories with the  rest  being  trun-
       cated.

       The  user may adjust the lines parameter or the size of graphics window
       to get an appropriate result.

       The user may specify a second raster map with the raster parameter from
       which  the  legend is generated. This is useful to visualize (time) se-
       ries of raster maps with a common static legend instead of the  default
       dynamic legend.

       To remove all frames when clearing the display, use d.erase -f.

EXAMPLE
       In  this  example,  the  polar diagram of the ’aspect’ angle map in the
       North Carolina sample dataset location is generated:
       g.region raster=landclass96 -p
       d.rast.leg landclass96
