 Yes. I mean, now it works on my computer.
 But I guess we need to verify if others with different python
 installations are also affected.
 Take the contents of the ZIP to compare what has changed.

 Sorry, I should have written:
 An empty DOS window with no command promp. Just a black window.

 by default. maybe some valuable error messages could end up there; maybe
 Glynn will rewrite grass.bat into a general launch_grass.py.
 I think after my replacement of the win32* packages in the GRASS python
 install, Colins minimisation doesn't work.
