In info.grass.user you write:

I created the files using p.labels.  I also created the labels files
myself using the required parameters.  As I said.  The labels showed up
fine when using it in a script with p.map, but d.paint.labels did not show
up when I used it from the command line.  (Nor did the labels show up when
I called the previously created file up using p.labels.)  Weird huh ?

I'm probably missing some small detail but I can't figure out what.  
I've read the damn manual at least 10 times.  To my mind I am doing
it right.

Thank you for responding
