Ah, that sort of hang. I gave it a try, and it looks like the
'osascript' I use is not exiting (use Activity Monitor and show All
Processes Hierarchically, and you can see it under Python). Quitting
osascript (no need to force quit it) returns to Python.
And I verified that setting GRASS_XTERM=xterm, d.rast.edit does
return control to Python.
hmmm....
Ah, that's got it! I was saving the name of the application that
initiates grass-xterm-wrapper so I could activate it when it
finishes, otherwise the Terminal is left active. While X11/TclTk
seems to be OK with this, Python is not. For some reason it stalls
between closing the Terminal window and activating Python.
For now I disabled the reactivation of the calling app until I can
figure out how to get Python to like it. In CVS now.

Oops. I spoke too soon. It still hangs.
Here is what I'm doing to test it. I start r.digit from the wxgrass
menu. It
launches an xmonitor and terminal properly. Then I hit return to
cancel. The
program shuts down, but I get a spinning beach ball with the
wxgrass GUI,
and have to force quite wxPython.

BUT, there is still the problem on PPC where once grass-xterm-

runs, a new GRASS.app will not run until Terminal.app is quit (and
thus all other running GRASS sessions).
I don't think this is a real problem. On other systems, you can
only have
one GRASS session running at a time.
Actually, I think you can. Just not more than one in the same
mapset.
