I don't see a problem with explicitly passing the -text and -tcltk switches whenever you start GRASS. The default will then only matter if the user starts GRASS manually from a console. Also, I'm not sure there's any point to having the batch files. You can just include the -text or -tcltk switch in the shortcut's command. -- Glynn Clements <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ grass-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-dev
