from my point of view is unacceptable to change the default GUI (DEFAULT_GUI in init.sh) within 6.4.x. Change it now (i.e. before releasing 6.4.0) or leave it for 6.5 (6.6) or 7.0. > IMHO this should be honored a lot and the wxgui should be considered as the > default in the upcoming grass64-release, > mainly to get feedback and being able to improve this interface. > > on windows - I've played a lot with grass64/65/70-versions - I've almost > never used the tcltk-gui. > > so I vote for wxgui as the default for all os-platforms. As a wxGUI developer I cannot judge which GUI should be default.
