<div>It's ready last GRASS GIS COMPLETE and GRASS GIS CVS for Mac OS
X.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div><b>GRASS GIS COMPLETE</b> (108 MB) at
http://wwwamb.bologna.enea.it/forgrass/download.htm requires:</div>
<div>Mac OS X 10.2.8 or higher, Apple X11 and includes:</div>
<ul>
<li>one single installer for libraries (Grass_Lib_050202.pkg): the
libraries for Grass are installed in /usr/local/grasslib folder;
<li>Grass folder (drag this folder in Applications folder): into this
folder there is grass54 app (grass 5.4.0) and grass60 app (grass
6.0.0beta1), DOC folder and LINKS folder;
<li>grassdata folder with demo data (drag this folder anywhere);
<li>useful links for Apple X11 for 10.2 or 10.3 (if you have not
installed X11).</ul>
<div><b><br></b></div>
<div><b>GRASS GIS CVS</b> (12.5 MB) at
http://wwwamb.bologna.enea.it/forgrass/downloadcvs.htm requires:</div>
<div>GRASS GIS COMPLETE and includes:</div>
<ul>
<li>one single app, grass60cvs (050205): drag this app inside
/Applications/Grass folder.</ul>
<div><br></div>
<div>Features:</div>
<div>- Grass Libraries are all inside /usr/local/grasslib folder.
Nothing is outside. Nothing wish link in /usr/bin: I've modified<font
size="-4" color="#000000">
GRASS_WISH=/usr/local/grasslib/bin/wish</font> in etc/Init.sh
file;</div>
<div>- many libraries updated with last version;</div>
<div>- Multisessions: you can open more locations with a double clic
on grass60 app every time;</div>
<div>- I've used this flag for C compiler "-O3
-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64" for file larger than 2 GB;</div>
<div>- GDAL 1.2.5 has GRASS support;</div>
<div>- Grass is stable in OS X (I hope).</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>The next revision for GG Complete is for 6.0.0 official. Until
that date you can download GG CVS.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div><br></div>
<div><br></div>
<div>PROPOSALS</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>- 1 -</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Now Grass 6.0 is multisessions and this feature is important to
open more LOCATION(s) but now you have more windows with the same
name.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>I've made these changes useful for all (this is in CVS version
but is the same in beta version):</div>

<div>These changes modify the name of prompt in terminal and the GIS
Manager window name. For better integration is need to modify another
part:</div>
<div>- x0, x1, etc.. Monitor window name (in<font color="#000000">
display/drivers/XDRIVER/XDRIVER24/Graph_Set.c</font>);</div>
<div>(the xterm window name is impossible to modify, I think)</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>and add the location name.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div><br></div>
<div><br></div>
<div>- 2 -</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>GIS Manager is very useful and it's powerful. One very useful
adding is:</div>
<div>- DUPLICATE button</div>
<div>Now there is a delete button but it's useful select the row in
GIS Manager and duplicate this row for modifying.</div>

<div>Hi all</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>----------------------------------------</div>
<div>Only for Mac users:</div>
<div>HELP FROM MAC DEVELOPERS.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Now GDAL has many formats but it lacks:</div>
<div>- OGDI</div>
<div>- MrSID</div>
<div>- ECW</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>My problem is 10.2.x compatibility. 10.3.x is much powerful but I
prefer much more compatibility. ECW format is out now in source code
but it lacks darwin flags.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Who can help me?</div>
