[GRASS-user] i.ortho.photo

[Michael Barton]

i.ortho.photo requires an xterm using XWindows. Windows doesn't have  
XWindows or xterms. This will not work on Windows until it is  
rewritten so as not to require an xterm. There are a handful of other  
older GRASS modules that require an xterm (e.g., i.class, r.digit).
