I have no idea how mingw got into the path. Can't find it in my system
environment variables. removing it from the path will not change the
GNU Bash (Cygwin) line but now I don't see that bunch of python erros
on screen. All it does is, after I select the location, it will start
grass, tell me that wxvdigit does not work in windows and then gives
me a Goodbye from Grass. The next line shows:
$ Quit wxGUI. Grass is not running.

Could other python installs be messing this up (python 2.4 from ArcGIS)?

Thanks
Daniel
