as discussed on grass-dev,
- in the OSGeo4W installer you get a grass terminal session in a dos box
using the wx gui
- in the OSGeo4W installer you get a blank dos box when using the tcltk
gui until you exit the gui when it becomes a grass terminal session (patch
in osgeo4w bug # 83 http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/ticket/83)
- in Colin's stand-alone installer the empty dos box is now minimized by
default. maybe some valuable error messages could end up there; maybe
Glynn will rewrite grass.bat into a general launch_grass.py.
