[GRASSLIST:147] Re: Considering replacing ESRI

[Daniel Victoria]

Can GRASS do the same type of layout that you can do
on ArcGIS, with all the "bells and whisles", I mean,
legends, scalebars, north arrows? I know tou can put
those on the display but on the E$RI product this is
just as easy as building a Power Point presentation...
