 yes please, thanks.

 because the command line was considered "scary" to Windows users, not to
 hide something that wasn't usable.

 the latter

 (I don't really have a strong opinion either way on what should be the
 default, power users can always copy their favorite grass-startup-mode
 icon to the desktop, just that it would be nice if the help page examples
 were easy to cut and paste somewhere, and "just work")

 help page examples can be copied/pasted in the windows CMD, I vote for
 "with CMD" as default
