(I have like 5000 emails in my mailing list inbox, sorry if I missed yours) If you are new to grass I would recommend using GRASS_BATCH_JOB instead of setting the enviro vars by hand. Then the grass startup script takes care of all of that for you. see the wiki page for more. http://grass.osgeo.org/wiki/GRASS_and_Shell#GRASS_Batch_jobs Hamish _______________________________________________ grass-user mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-user
