 Replying to [comment:28 martinl]:

 > > So if you want to retain the existing semantics for MONITOR, all
 references to it should be removed from the display library. Instead,
 wxGUI would set GRASS_RENDER_COMMAND to refer to a program or script which
 implements the MONITOR behaviour. Any future changes to the wxGUI monitor
 mechanism would only affect wxGUI and its utility programs, not the
 display systems.

 > it's not only about wxGUI. The reason for having (GRASS) variable
 MONITOR is the module `d.mon` which allows to manage "file-based monitors"
 (like cairo output) and also standalone wxGUI monitors. This feature is
 requested by many of GRASS users, there is strong interest to have `d.mon`
 in GRASS 7.

 Now that you mentioned that, I decided to take a look at d.mon.

 I must have missed the discussion about the implementation of this. Can
 you tell me where to find it?
