Hi William,

I've been meaning to ask about wxgrass and CLI stuff - you're
obviously working on a GUI psuedo-terminal for running commands the
old-fashioned CLI way.  I take it there is/will be no need for
something like 'grass-xterm-wrapper', and any place that the TclTk
GUI used that this pseudo terminal will work in wxgrass?

This should be unnecessary for a couple of reasons. One is that the new wxgrass is native Mac, rather than xwindows. So stuff will run from the regular terminal. The other is the desire to include a built in terminal feature. This already exists in the TclTk version, but most people don't notice or take advantage of it--probably because it's kind of on the 'busy'
side.

I kinda figured it wouldn't need some sort of external pseudo- terminal thing and be able to use its own. Just checking.


PS. did you ever get a chance to try my Terminal-enabled version of
grass-xterm-wrapper?  I've been lazy in committing it, so you'd have
to dig it out of the email, or maybe I should just commit it
anyways. It's in my binaries and I haven't heard of any problems yet...

I guess I didn't but I'm not sure. I assumed that it was in the cvs. I've probably buried your email somewhere. But it must be working somehow, since I use the terminal for everything in the TclTk/x11 version of GRASS and don't need to use the x11 terminal. I'm compiling from your *.app setup.

So, the create location by projection values opens in a Terminal? Then yes, you must have installed it into your source. When you update your CVS you probably always get a line "M lib/init/grass- xterm-wrapper".

I'll commit it then, to make it official.

Theory of the Universe

There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarrely inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened.
