Don't know why you get that (user id's?), but I don't think it will 
work from the GUI anyway:

[Run]
g.mremove vect=foo? 
Collecting map names for current mapset <user1>...
g.remove vect=foo1,foo2,foo3

Did you mean this(y/n)?


  ^^^^ interactive prompt which won't work in the Tcl/Tk window.


needs to happen in an xterm like r.digit?
