<FONT FACE="Verdana, Helvetica, Arial"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:12.0px'>I just committed the finishing touches to the wxPython GUI intro screen and location wizard.<BR>
<BR>
The intro screen gives the same functions as the TclTk one (GRASS database, location, and mapset selection) and mapset creation, plus a new location wizard that Jachym and I've done, and options to rename or delete locations and mapsets.<BR>
<BR>
The location wizard is a nice GUI (with a great graphic from Jachym) that walks you through location creation by any of the following methods: espg code, georeferenced file, datum selection, projection/ellipse selection, custom PROJ4 string entry, or XY location creation. After a location is created, you have the option of setting/resetting the default region extents and resolution.<BR>
<BR>
This is all done within a wxPython GUI that runs native on all major platforms.<BR>
<BR>
----------------<BR>
The new wxPython GUI for GRASS is currently under development and nearing completion. It can be downloaded from<BR>
<https://grasssvn.itc.it/grasssvn/grassaddons/trunk/grassaddons/gui/#_trunk_grassaddons_gui_><BR>
It requires Python 2.4 or above and wxPython 2.8 or above.<BR>
----------------<BR>
<BR>
Give it a spin.<BR>
