That's not good for the GUI, where the module won't have a stdin (ideally, it will have been closed; if not, the module will hang, waiting to read from whatever its stdin happens to be). Requiring e.g. input=- has the advantage that GUI users are unlikely to do this accidentally; choosing "-" via the file selector would require that you have a file named "-" somewhere. -- Glynn Clements <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ grass-user mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-user
