[GRASS-user] problem with spgrass6

Hi,

I've installed spgrass6, which apparently went fine (on my mac).


All the examples I found run R commands from the GRASS console (hence  
not being necessary to specify the GRASS LOCATION, etc.

Isn't it possible to specify a GRASS LOCATION from within the R  
interface?

In R, I loaded spgrass6, then tried:

 > initGRASS("/Applications/grass-6.4.app")

and I get:

/bin/sh: g.gisenv: command not found
/bin/sh: g.gisenv: command not found
/bin/sh: g.gisenv: command not found
/bin/sh: g.gisenv: command not found
/bin/sh: g.gisenv: command not found
Error in if (file.exists(file) == FALSE) if (!missing(asText) &&  
asText ==  :
   argument is of length zero
Error in parseGRASS(cmd) : g.region not parsed
sh: g.region: command not found
 >

----
If I want to start GRASS and open a specific mapset, would this work?

initGRASS("/Applications/grass-6.4.app", GISdbase="/Users/antonio/ 
Documents/grass", location="pt_etrs89", mapset="interior")

(well, it doesn't, I'm just not sure why...)

Thank you
António
