Hi,

I am currently trying to compile GRASS (releasebranch_6_4) under MS
Windows [1].

TODO:

* compile with regex

I can report it works fine with the Gnuwin32 regex packages. Another issue is that Cairo support in the 6.4 configure script requires the pkg-config command which isn't generally available on Windows. But the 7.0 configure script doesn't require pkg-config and in any case Cairo support isn't particularly important for 6.4 so I don't think this needs to be addressed.

It would be also good to modify Windows installer: add to the menu
(and desktop) two items

* TCLTK GRASS
* WX GRASS

Something else that might be worth investigating would be to implement an option to select the language. I've found that it can easily be done by setting the environment variable LC_ALL to the country code (if compiled with NLS support - Gnuwin32 intl packages work fine here) but the average Windows user may not know how to set an environment variable and I wonder is there some standard way applications using NLS support on Windows set the language.
