[GRASS-dev] GRASS 6: GISRC on Windows

[Maris Nartiss]

Seems that recent changes have broken something on Windows. This is
what I get when I try to start GRASS (WinGRASS-6.4.SVN-r49571-1) on
Vista (had to run from CMD to see anything and had to enable echo on
init.bat file):

C:\Users\tests>"C:\Program Files\GRASS 6.4.SVN\etc\echo" "GISDBASE: C:\Users\tes
ts"   | g.dirseps -g  1>"C:\Users\tests\AppData\Roaming\GRASS6\grassrc6"
The system cannot find the path specified.

There is no "GRASS6" folder in C:\Users\tests\AppData\Roaming\.
Maris.
