Yes; but this isn't what it's complaining about.

It isn't saying that the "minimum" parameter is required. It's saying
that you haven't provided enough parameters. Saying "Insufficent
parameters" may have been clearer.
How about:
ERROR: neither "levels" nor "step" parameter specified.

Glynn, you could change the error message although that may still not satisfy
some users - in GRASS there are probably more programs with parameters like this
and it was assumed that user reads the manual (or at least thinks), so this isn't
really
a bug. The clean solution would be that if no parameters are given, but the name
of
output
file is given the program gives warning that sufficient parameters were not set
and runs some default output, in this case
it can draw ten contours between minimum and max values.
But this really is not of great priority, unless it is an easy thing to do. It
is not
too difficult
for any thinking person to figure out that he needs to give some info on which
contours
to draw.
