Comment (by hamish):
tested, works in 6.4.0nightly wingrass wxGUI.
one annoyance is that $GRASS_PAGER is set to be `less` instead of `more`.
`more` seems to be a DOS built-in function, so msys startup/prompt can't
detect/use it.
The nice thing about `more` is that you don't need to know how to use it,
you just smash the keyboard until it goes away. For `less` you do need to
know to use the `q` key to get out (easy once you know, not if you don't).
another is that OnXTerm should unset the GRASS_MESSAGE_FORMAT enviro var
to avoid printing GRASS_INFO_WARNING(), GRASS_INFO_END() etc. to the
terminal.
{{{
# unset
del os.environ['GRASS_MESSAGE_FORMAT']
...
# reset
os.environ['GRASS_MESSAGE_FORMAT'] = 'gui'
}}}
? (python doesn't like it)
