[GRASS-user] g.manual tries to run C:\Program Files\Internet Exporer\iexplore (the 'L' is missing from 'Explorer')

[Frank Bilki]

Hi Milton,

That worked! Thanks so much for the suggestion.

I experimented with combining the forward slashes and the full pathname with
spaces (e.g. C:/Program Files/Internet Explorer/iexplore) and that also
worked. So it seems the cause was using back-slashes instead of
forward-slashes.

I notice that the batch file contains a mixture of back- and
forward-slashes, e.g.:

set WINGISBASE=%OSGEO4W_ROOT%/apps/grass/grass-6.4.0svn
"%WINGISBASE%"\etc\init.bat %*

Is there a systematic rule for choosing which to use?

Cheers,

Frank

Hi Frank,
 
Try: 
set GRASS_HTML_BROWSER=C:/Progra~1/Intern~1/iexplore

You can also cast opening the following file on your browser:
file:///C:/OSGeo4W/apps/grass/grass-6.4.0svn/docs/html/full_index.html
(change the version directory)
