[GRASSLIST:1097] Re: Mac OS X build

[Markus Neteler]

Hi Jeshua,

GRASS 5 MacOS binaries are "wanted". If you will build them,
we might be able to assist in case of problems.

I suggest me switch to grass5 developers list:
http://www.geog.uni-hannover.de/grass/grassdevel.html

or to personal communication for details. I highly recommend
you use the CVS-version for compiling as platform independence
has been improved again:
http://www.geog.uni-hannover.de/grass/grasscvs.html

The reprojection of your data should be possible with
GRASS (r.proj, v.proj, s.proj).

Kind regards
