SYNOPSIS
       g.remove
       g.remove --help
       g.remove             [-irefb]              type=datatype[,datatype,...]
       [name=string[,string,...]]      [ignore=string[,string,...]]      [pat-
       tern=string]    [exclude=string]    [--help]   [--verbose]    [--quiet]
       [--ui]

   Flags:
       -i
           Ignore case

       -r
           Use basic regular expressions instead of wildcards

       -e
           Use extended regular expressions instead of wildcards

       -f
           Force removal (required for actual deletion of files)

       -b
           Remove base raster maps

       --help
           Print usage summary

       --verbose
           Verbose module output

       --quiet
           Quiet module output

       --ui
           Force launching GUI dialog

   Parameters:
       type=datatype[,datatype,...] [required]
           Data type(s)
           Options: raster, raster_3d, vector, label, region, group, all
           raster: raster map(s)
           raster_3d: 3D raster map(s)
           vector: vector map(s)
           label: paint label file(s)
           region: region definition(s)
           group: imagery group(s)
           all: all types

       name=string[,string,...]
           Name of file(s) to remove

       ignore=string[,string,...]
           Name of file(s) to ignore (default: none)

       pattern=string
           File name search pattern

       exclude=string
           File name exclusion pattern (default: none)

DESCRIPTION
       g.remove  removes  data  files matching a pattern given by wildcards or
       POSIX Extended Regular Expressions. If the -f force flag is  not  given
       then  nothing  is  removed,  instead the list of selected file names is
       printed to stdout as a preview of the files to be deleted.

EXAMPLES
       Delete map1 and map2 raster maps in the current mapset:
       g.remove -f type=raster name=tmp1,tmp2
       Delete all raster and vector maps starting with "tmp_" in  the  current
       mapset:
       # show matching raster and vector maps but do not delete yet (as verification)
       g.remove type=raster,vector pattern="tmp_*"
       # actually delete the matching raster and vector maps
       g.remove -f type=raster,vector pattern="tmp_*"
       Delete  all  vector maps starting with "stream_" in the current mapset,
       but exclude those ending with "_final":
       g.remove -f type=vector pattern="stream_*" exclude="*_final"
