+
+<h2>GRASS wxpython based graphical user interface</h2>
+
+The plan for a native GRASS Graphical User Interface (GUI) found is origin
+in the project "GFOSS–TN", a collaboration between FBK (Fondazione Bruno
+Kessler) and the Information System Service of the Trento municipality (Italy).
+
+This GRASS GUI is written in the Python programming language using wxPython –
+a blending of the wxWidgets library for Python. The GUI is composed of two
+main components: Layer Manager and Map Display Window. The Layer Manager
+allows users to run different GRASS modules from a menu, includes map layer 
+management, integrated command-line prompt, and command output window.
+Map Display Window integrates basic tools for zooming, panning, data querying,
+decorations (north arrows, barscale, etc.). Additional tools like Digitization
+or Georectification tool are also available.
+
+Ongoing development focuses on stability, portability and on the integration
+of OpenGL. As result, Map Display Window will support 3D rendering including
+3D raster (voxels) and 3D vector data.
+
+Development plans:
+<p>
+A Map Composer, a tool for hardcopy map outputs is planned to be developed
+in the first half of 2008. Currently, the tools for creating hardcopy maps
+(map layout) are limited in GRASS because its focus on modeling and spatial
+analysis. GRASS gives the user ability to add only a very simple and standardized
+legend, north arrow and scale to display to the graphics monitor and then export the
+display to an external image file such as a png. These map features are very basic
+and cannot be customized. The goal is to allow users to prepare simple cartographic
+outputs comparable e.g. with other, proprietary GIS map layout functionality.
