Hi Steve,
Thanks for replying.
I know it works like this but the add function does not work as you said!
Problem is that I do not get even the mapsets and locations eventhough I
have one. I checked my directory .xgrass/session and there is a good
session file like it should be (I made it by vi). But I have something
else which is very strange! If I do a substitute to myself su - .....
I got indeed the good locations and I can indeed select these mapsets. It
is very confusing and I got no idea how this is possible. I rather think
it is a problem of my keymap and settings for X libraries. As you maybe
remember also from your install there is a problem to allocate the
X-libraries. Sometimes he tells he could not find it while they are
really there. Maybe it has something to do with that! I also checked the
archive and I found some questions about it but never any answer! I think
there is only one hope! Bill Brown seems to be the one who could
eventually help us but it is quite some time eversince I saw mails from
him on the list! Any case I see and let you know more if I make progress
in it!
