For any other novices lurking, that /.grassrc6 was in my root (i.e.,
Users/MyName).

That's what the tilde '~' refers to, your home folder.

I had been misled by a /.grassrc64 in a directory called
"demolocation" a few layers inside my system Library.

That's probably in the modbuild folder.  Yes, you can ignore this one.

Unfortunately, it still can't handle window resizing, even as the first thing done after opening the GUI. The program stops recognizing input and
must be Force Quit.

Also, the GUI won't launch at startup. I get:

Hmmm, what OSX version? Did you install the GRASS build matching your system version? Which GRASS installer version (ie: is it the latest rc4-1)? If OSX Leopard (10.5), did you install Python (it's OK not to, since the system Python is reasonably recent).

I have seen problems getting the GUI to start automatically vs starting it manually with g.gui, though the wxpython GUI seems to work now on startup.

The equator is so long, it could encircle the earth completely once.
