Very useful to know all that Daniel. I tried once some commands in win-GRASS terminal and (of course) commands like sort, cut, etc didn't work. Without these commands I don't think that I would like to use GRASS under win. I think for beginners && winGRASS users it would be nice to be able to select more files at once for example in r.in.gdal How else can a newbie load 10 raster maps at once? How about patching 8 corine tiles together at once? If I remember well, only in some modules is this option available (to load with ctrl +mouseclick) all tiles at once? Well, maybe it is a way to "force" learning to use simple scripts (which is good from on side). I stopped using the GUI after 1 and 1/2 months after starting with GRASS because of this. And I don't regret it. But it might be more easy for a beginner while "living" a transitional phase between GUIs and CLI.
