Comment (by hamish):

 I changed grass-xterm-wrapper to automatically look for rxvt if xterm is
 not there (r30863)*, but I have zero idea at all how grass-xterm-wrapper
 should be handled for  native MS Windows installs (but guarantee-xmon is
 useless there anyway, as there is no xmons, so don't bother?).

 [*] add others as needed (eterm?). I added only rxvt because that's all I
 use; xterm is no longer installed by default on Debian.

 note r.digit is just a simple front end to r.in.poly, which uses an ascii
 format very similar to v.in.ascii's format=standard. Thus creating a new
 wxPython raster digitizer to replace the old r.digit should not be /that/
 much work.
 IMO using r.in.poly is a slightly better approach than v.digit+v.to.rast,
 although the latter happening for the backend wouldn't be so bad if it
 could be automated.
