[GRASS-dev] Re: [GRASSGUI] CLI working again

[William Kyngesburye]

I've been meaning to ask about wxgrass and CLI stuff - you're  
obviously working on a GUI psuedo-terminal for running commands the  
old-fashioned CLI way.  I take it there is/will be no need for  
something like 'grass-xterm-wrapper', and any place that the TclTk  
GUI used that this pseudo terminal will work in wxgrass?

PS. did you ever get a chance to try my Terminal-enabled version of  
grass-xterm-wrapper?  I've been lazy in committing it, so you'd have  
to dig it out of the email, or maybe I should just commit it  
anyways.  It's in my binaries and I haven't heard of any problems yet...
