Chapter 10 Map Manipulation

The ability to copy a previous map's registration can be extremely important,
particularly when a project involves multiple layers per map base.  Rather than
re-enter geodetic registration for each layer of the same map base, the initial
entry can be duplicated and stored with each layer.

reg_copy

    Copies registration from named map.
     
         reg_copy name c1 [c2 ... cn]

    Copies registration type(s) c1 [c2 ... cn] from the named map file (name)
    to the active map's registration file.
    ___________________________________________________________________________
    Options/arguments:

         name      Name of registration file to be copied; if no path name
                   (i.e., /u[sr]/ltp/...) is supplied, then the path is assumed
                   to be:
                             /u/ltp/maps/(name)/register.
         c1        Coordinate type code, where:
         ... cn    0 = Raster pixels
                   1 = W. Longitude, N. Latitude (ddd/mm/ss.ss) 
                   2 = UTM meters
                   3 = State Plane feet
                   4 = Digitizer1, absolute coordinates 
                   5 = Digitizer2, absolute coordinates 
                   6 = Map inches
                   10-19 = User-defined units
    ___________________________________________________________________________
    Example(s):

    To copy the registration values for the state plane and UTM corners from a
    map called pug_point to the current map, enter:
     
         reg_copy pug_point 3 2
