   Parameters:
       input=name [required]
           Name of raster map to be recoded

       output=name [required]
           Name for output raster map

       rules=name [required]
           File containing recode rules
           ’-’ for standard input

       title=string
           Title for output raster map

DESCRIPTION
       r.recode creates an output raster map  by  recoding  input  raster  map
       based  on  recode  rules. A title for the output raster map may be (op-
       tionally) specified by the user.

       The recode rules can be read from standard input (i.e., from  the  key-
       board, redirected from a file, or piped through another program) by en-
       tering rules=-.

       Rules are defined in one of these formats:
       old_low:old_high:new_low:new_high
       old_low:old_high:new_val  (i.e. new_high == new_low)
       *:old_val:new_val         (interval [inf, old_val])
       old_val:*:new_val         (interval [old_val, inf])

       r.recode is loosely based on r.reclass and uses the GRASS  Reclass  Li-
       brary  to  convert the rasters. It has routines for converting to every
       possible combination of raster (eg. CELL  to  DCELL,  DCELL  to  FCELL,
       etc).  Standard  floating point raster precision is float (FCELL), with
       -d double precision (DCELL) will be written.

       There are four basic routines that it accepts:

       1      old-low to old-high is reclassed to new-low to new high ,  where
              the  user  provides  all four values. The program figures on the
              fly what type of raster should be created.

       2      old-low to old-high is reclassed to a single new value. Anything
              outside the range is null.

       3      *  to  old-high  will reclass everything less than old-high to a
              single new value.

       4      old-low to * will reclass everything greater than old-low  to  a
              single new value.

       These four sets of arguments can be given on the command line, or piped
       via stdin or a file. More than one set of arguments is accepted.

EXAMPLES
   Map type conversion
       To simply convert a raster between formats (eg. int to float) the  user
       would use the first argument. For example
       10:1500:0.1:15.0
       would  convert  an input raster map with range between 10 and 1500 to a
       float raster raster with range between 0.1 and 15.0.

   Value replacement
       r.recode can be used to replace existing cell  values  by  others.  The
       formatting  is as described above. In following example the values 1, 2
       and 3 are replaced by 1.1, 7.5 resp. 0.4:
       r.recode input=oldmap output=newmap rules=- << EOF
       1:1:1.1:1.1
       2:2:7.5:7.5
       3:3:0.4:0.4
       EOF
