[GRASS5] [bug #2424] (grass) creating new location with grass57

[Michael Barton]

Are you perhaps trying to do this using a Mac OSX system? This has  
happened under OSX for a long time and no one seems to know why. The  
tcltk entry screen is supposed to take you to a text screen to create  
the new location, but it didn't. The alternative is to start grass in  
text mode (>grass57 -text) when you want to make a new location.

However, I just downloaded and installed Lorenzo Moretti's new binaries  
from 15 May 2004 and the new location button finally seems to work  
properly on my Mac. I will have to try this out more.
