I kinda figured it wouldn't need some sort of external pseudo- 
terminal thing and be able to use its own.  Just checking.

So, the create location by projection values opens in a Terminal?   
Then yes, you must have installed it into your source.  When you  
update your CVS you probably always get a line "M lib/init/grass-

Theory of the Universe

There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly  
what the universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly  
disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarrely  
inexplicable.  There is another theory which states that this has  
already happened.
