Glynn,
In this way it works. But do I have to put this

g.mkfontcap -s > ~/.gfontcap
export GRASS_FONT_CAP=$HOME/.gfontca

into the .grass.bashrc, that don't have to export it every time I open a 
new bash?

(
I opened a new bash and got there:
GRASS:~/gw$ echo $GRASS_FONT_CAP
....
GRASS:~/gw$
)

For my new GRASS svn it doesn't matter, but for me its in general 
interesting to know how to work with /export/ in such cases. Is there a 
file where the bash saves all the env-variables and how to influence it.
- But probably this is off-topic...

cheers
