Hello All
Regarding a message that Hamish sent me a last week ago, related with:
FWIW, I try to copy custom stuff into a dir outside the install
dir which is pointed to by the GRASS_ADDON_PATH environment
variable, that way I can replace & upgrade grass versions
without accidentally deleting all my custom scripts.
see the "variables" help page.
I have added the following
export GRASS_ADDON_PATH=/usr/local/myproject
in grass64 (file located in /usr/local/bin)
Perhaps you have added it after the call to Init.sh? It needs to be set
before Init.sh is run in order to be picked up.
Even easier though, would be to set it in your .profile file in your home
directory (create it if it's not there) - then it will always be set
whenever you start a new shell and there is no need to edit the GRASS
startup script. If you upgrade to a newer version of GRASS you won't
need to re-edit the startup script either. Or you could just specify it on
the command-line before starting GRASS; something like:
p...@haptimap:~/gis$ GRASS_ADDON_PATH=/usr/local/myproject grass64
should also work.
Best regards
Paul
