[GRASS-user] grass 6.4 rc5 and python scripting

[Ricardo Filipe Soares Garcia da]

Hello all
Thanks for your good advice. I decided to go with the option of
EXPORTing the grass addon path and put my scripts there, which works
ok, well... kind of.

It happens that when I launch GRASS from the terminal, the
GRASS_ADDON_PATH gets correctly added to the PATH and I can load my
test script. However, if I start GRASS from the gnome menu (or
gnome-do) the GRASS_ADDON_PATH gets ignored. Maybe theres some config
file that I have to tweak?
