#1239: wxGUI command layer broken and unusable
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
Reporter: garu | Owner: grass-dev@…
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: major | Milestone: 6.4.1
Component: wxGUI | Version: 6.4.0
Keywords: | Platform: MSWindows XP
Cpu: Unspecified |
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
Comment(by garu):
Michael, i just began to scratch the Grass surface and for sure i've not
explored yet all the option and subtleties that the wxGUI interface
offers, so my opinion could be of scarce value, but afaik i've seen at
least two reasons to maintain the command layer:
1) it looks that Grass commands counts in the order of hundreds, do really
all of them have their graphical layer correspondence? I doubt, so i think
the command layer is the only option if a user wants to introduce in the
map stack some "esoteric" command.
2) in OS env, like Windoz, where shell programming is a real pain, command
layers can be a real help for rapid prototyping while still being able to
avail of the many facilities of the graphical interface.
I really hope you will reconsider your position, imo throwing away command
layer would be a real loss.
