<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2>Hi Glynn,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT size=2>OK. I summarize:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT size=2>if I launch GRASS with the wxpython GUI, g.gisenv works, if either launched from shell (MSYS) or from the module GUI; in fact, after the g.gisenv command, if I run <FONT face="Courier New">g.list -f type=rast</FONT> I have the list of all the rasters in the new location</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT size=2>if I launch GRASS with the tcltk GUI, g.gisenv doesn't work, neither if launched from MSYS shell, nor from the module GUI: in fact, after it, if I run g.list it says that the location's raster list is empty (as it should be, since I'm in the demolocation)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT size=2>after adding the <FONT face="Courier New">set GIS_LOCK=0</FONT> line in init.bat it works :-)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT size=2>another thing: the manual says:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>g.gisenv [get=VARIABLE] [set="VARIABLE=value"] [store=string]<BR> [--verbose] [--quiet]</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT size=2>but it's not correct: (in Windows?) should be:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>g.gisenv [set=VARIABLE=value]</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT size=2>in fact, if I type, for example, from the demolocation:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face="Courier New" size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>g.gisenv set="LOCATION_NAME=GRASS-Tutorial"</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face="Courier New" size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT size=2>I have, as output from g.gisenv:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>GISDBASE='C:/Documents and Settings/Marco/Documenti/GIS DataBase/GRASS Locations';<BR>LOCATION_NAME='demolocation';<BR>MAPSET='PERMANENT';<BR>"LOCATION_NAME='GRASS-Tutorial"';</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face="Courier New" size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT size=2>While, if I use the suggested syntax I have:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>GISDBASE='C:/Documents and Settings/Marco/Documenti/GIS DataBase/GRASS Locations';<BR>LOCATION_NAME='GRASS-Tutorial';<BR>MAPSET='PERMANENT';</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT size=2>Thanks for your patience,</FONT></DIV>
