[GRASS-windows] GRASS 6.3.0RC5

Hi, thanks for responding.

I do have that file, C:\GRASS\tcl-tk\bin\wish.exe. When I run it a
"console" and a "wish" window pop up.

My grass63.bat file has a line:
   set GRASS_WISH=wish.exe
I made a guess and changed it to:
   set GRASS_WISH=C:\GRASS\tcl-tk\bin\wish.exe

That got me farther: the GRASS startup window appears. However, this
message is printed to the console:

access: Invalid argument
ERROR: LOCATION << C:/GRASS/<UNKNOWN> >> not available

And I get a Tcl-looking pop-up box that reads, "Warning: location
<<UNKNOWN>> at GISDBASE <C:/GRASS> is not a directory or does not
exist." When I close that, nothing seems wrong (but I wouldn't
necessarily know, since this is my first interaction the program).

Thanks,
Adam
