g.remove - Removes data base element files from the user’s current mapset using the search pattern.

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.

       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"

       general, map management, remove
