 Replying to [comment:23 timmie]:
 > Where should  GRASS_PYTHON point to?

 set GRASS_PYTHON=C:\path\to\python.exe


 which should be the version of python which you want GRASS to use and set
 before you try to start GRASS.

 make sure the first path with a python25.dll (or whatever that is called)
 which shows up in your %PATH% matches that.

 i.e. the straight-python bits might not care which flavour of python you
 use as long as the .exe and .dll are matched. But the wxvdigit and wxnviz
 C++ compiled parts will probably want only the exact python(.exe & .dll)
 that they were built for.
