<TITLE>g.gisenv in gui</TITLE>

<FONT FACE="Verdana, Helvetica, Arial"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:12.0px'>Found another minor item that a small change could improve.<BR>
<BR>
g.gisenv does not behave like other GRASS commands in that you cannot launch the autogenerated gui by typing ‘g.gisenv’ from the command line. Instead, you get the current environment settings. You can only get the gui if you run it through some special processing in the GUI. Likewise, you can’t get it to print out current environment settings from the gui unless you do some tricks with its execution.<BR>
<BR>
To behave more ‘normally’ it needs a –p flag. Then...<BR>
<BR>
g.gisenv -> autogenerated gui<BR>
g.gisenv –p -> print current settings.<BR>
<BR>
I suppose that this would break a bunch of scripts, but it would be nice if it could work consistently with other commands.<BR>
