Hi Marco,<br><br>
I loaded the new build under Windows XP and it runs all right, so far as
my simple usage is concerned - constructing a map from various vector
layers. <br><br>
However, as someone new to Grass, my knowledge is not great. Using
the print button on the map display, I'm having trouble reproducing in a
file what I see on the screen <br>
- An eps file does not appear to include the entire region on the screen,
regardless of the paper size specified (I've tried A4 and A0)<br>
- A pdf file using A4 paper is at least contained within the page,
although not centrally, but if I specify A0 I get a part map in one
corner of the page.<br>
Can you point me at relevant documentation to read to try to sort this
out please?<br><br>
Many thanks,<br>
John Field<br><br>

<font size=2>Hi lists,<br><br>
I built GRASS 6.3.0 on Vista (Home Premium) through the usual MSYS/MinGW
envrironment.<br>
It works fine on my machine, and it seems that it solved the following
bugs:<br><br>

<a href="http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/ticket/118" eudora="autourl">
http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/ticket/118</a><br><br>
But I need more tests, from both XP and Vista users;<br>
I specially need to know if that build works fine also on XP systems,
because at the moment I cannot access my old XP machine to test it by
myself.<br><br>
In this binary release candidate (the 4th for GRASS 6.3.0) I introduced
the following changes:<br><br>
- added libjpeg (6b) library [built from source]<br>
- added JPEG support in libtiff<br>
- added JPEG support in GRASS<br>
- updated libpng from 1.2.24 to 1.2.29<br>
- updated GLS from 1.9 to 1.11<br>
- updated PostgreSQL from 8.2.6 to 8.3.1<br>
- updated SQLite from 3.5.6 to 3.5.9<br>
- added the OGDI tools (3.2.0beta1-4) [prebuilt binaries from OSGEO4W
Project]<br>
- updated GDAL from 1.5.1 to 1.5.2<br>
- added the AVCE00 tools (2.0.0) [built from source]<br>
- added the E00compr tools (1.0.0) [built from source]<br>
- added the GPSBabel tools (1.3.5) [prebuilt binaries from GPSBabel Web
Site]<br>
- updated tcl from 8.5.1 to 8.5.2<br>
- updated tk from 8.5.1 to 8.5.2<br><br>
I also tried to add the FFMPEG and wxWidgets supports to GRASS, but I
failed for the moment; I'll try to do that next times :-)<br><br>
The WinGRASS-6.3.0-4 Test Installer is available here:<br>
