 Whilst testing the OSGeo Live DVD (vm version) I followed the instructions
 to further test the installation. I am not a user of the wxGui so it was
 interesting. Errors or improvements:

 1) In section 'Using wxPython graphical user interface: Digitizing: line
 3' I would suggest that zoom is done to the elevation map after the
 addition of the ortho map (the ortho overlies it anyway). This way the
 selection of a house to digitise will be in the map area when 3D vector
 and visualisation is done. The first house I picked was outside of the
 elevation map and subsequently wasn't in the 3D visualisation, so had to
 start again.

 2) Same section: line 5, there is no Tools menu. I looked for while (I
 could have used v.digit but wanted to follow the instructions as a new
 user would). I suggest text 'Select Digitise from the drop-down box in the
 top-right corner of the map window (currently set at 2DView)'. Unless I am
 missing something obvious!

 3) Same section: line 8, very minor but for consistency, "Quit" instead of
 "Close". I could change this myself but as other bits needed verification,
 have left it here.

 Hope you don't think I am being too pedantic,

 Cheers

 John
