+The old <em>gis.m</em> and <em>d.m</em> Tcl/Tk-based GUIs known from
+GRASS GIS 6 have been dropped in GRASS GIS 7.
<h2>NOTES</h2>
-If the <b>-u</b> update flag is given or the GRASS
-<tt>GUI</tt> variable is missing, then the <tt>GUI</tt> variable is
-permanently changed and the selected <b>ui</b> will be used as the default
-UI from then on.
+If the <b>-u</b> update flag is given or the <tt>GRASS_GUI</tt>
+environmental <a href="variables.html">variable</a> is unset, then
+the GRASS internal variable <tt>GUI</tt> is permanently changed and
+the selected <b>ui</b> will be used as the default UI from then on.

-GRASS variables (see <em><a href="g.gisenv.html">g.gisenv</a></em>)
+All GRASS internal variables (see <em><a href="g.gisenv.html">g.gisenv</a></em>)
are stored in the user's home directory in a hidden file called
<tt>$HOME/.grass7/rc</tt> on Unix-based operating systems
-and <tt>%APPDATA%\GRASS7\rc</tt> on MS Windows. Note that GRASS
-variables are not the shell environment variables and the
+and <tt>%APPDATA%\GRASS7\rc</tt> on MS Windows. Note that these GRASS
+internal variables are not the shell environment variables and the
"rc" file is not a classic UNIX run command file, it just
contains persistent GRASS variables.
<h2>EXAMPLE</h2>
-Set the command line text-based UI to be the default UI:
+Set default user interface setting to command line, text-based UI:
<div class="code"><pre>
g.gui -u ui=text
</pre></div>
