-A) HOW TO work with GRASS inside the Mac OS X environment
-
-  - Install Grass following the instructions
-
-  Just follow the instructions at:
-   ftp://www.geog.uni-hannover.de/pub/grass/grass5/binary/mac_os_x/README.html
-
-   You should probably already have done it.
-
-
-B) HOW TO USE the (OPTIONAL) GUI (Graphical User Interface)
-
-  - Install X-windows system
-
-    Download it from:
-
-    http://www.darwinfo.org/pub/darwin/X11/X11R6-darwin.tar.gz
-      and follow the instructions for X-Windows Library installation:
-
-    http://mrcla.com/XonX/start.html
-
-    (not: http://www.darwinfo.org/howto/x.shtml)
-
-    The page also prompt you about some mis-behaviours of Mac OS X PB.
-
-
-
-C) HOW TO WORK with GRASS GUI without have to ">console" IN
-
-   After doing that you are able to run it all BUT you have to log in as
-   >console
-   thus, missing the good of the Mac OS X environment. To get the best of the 2
-   worlds (Mac OS X and X-Windows) you need to get also the freebie Xvnc viewer
-   to run xwindows within osx.
-
-
-   - Download some additional stuff
-
-   Please go to:
-   http://www.geog.uni-hannover.de/grass/grass5/binary/mac_os_x/
-
-   And download the files: "tcltk_macosX_lib.tar.gz" and 
-   "tcltkbin_macosX.tar.gz".
-
-   Copy or move the two tarballs to root (/)
-
-   Then at the prompt (% represents the prompt below)
-
-     % cd /;  gunzip tcltk_macosX_lib.tar.gz;  tar -xvf tcltk_macosX_lib.tar.gz
-     % gunzip tcltkbin_macosX.tar.gz;  tar -xvf tcltkbin_macosX.tar.gz
-
-
-   - TO INSTALL XvnC
-
-   It's at:
-
-   http://www.cdc.noaa.gov/~jsw/macosx_xvnc/
-
-   (instructions are provided there as well)
-
-
-   Installing requires 2 steps:
-
-   1-  Installing the vncserver (which get you a running demon)
-
-   2- Installing the viewer (as you will see, you have several choices)
-
-
-   - TO INSTALL WINDOW-MAKER (actually optional)
-
-   That is a little bit more tricky if you do not download the right packages
-   because Darwin (the core of MAC OS X) is not case sensitive by default. Thus
-   for instance untarring the files "install" and "INSTALL" would let you with
-   a single file, the last in the .tar package.
-
-   The right package is at:
-
-   http://www.darwinfo.org/pub/darwin/X11/WindowMaker-0.62.1.tgz
-
-   You will be left with the file:
-
-   WindowMaker-0.62.1.tgz
-
-   After having untarred it (tar zxvf WindowMaker-0.62.tgz) you will be left
-   with a folder containing the whole stuff. Just enter the folder and (after
-   loging as root typing "su" and password) type:
-
-   % make install
-
-   This will put the stuff in the right places.
-   Exit as root (type "exit") and as a normal user run:
-
-   % wmaker.inst
-
-   (this is in /usr/local/bin and the user must have this directory in the path)
-
-
-   -TO RUN THE WHOLE THING
-
-   To start Xvnc, type
-
-   % vncserver -depth 24 -geometry 1024x768
-
-   in the terminal window (the color depth or resolution should be set to
-   match your monitor).
-
-   then  go to the Vnc icon and double click it (if you followed the
-   instructions you have it on your  doc otherwise ....)

-   If you install window maker, to use it in vnc instead of the default twm
-   window manager you have to exit from vncviewer and vncserver (if you
-   were in). To stop the vncserver type "vncserver -kill :#" where # stand
-   for the number of the display under vncserver you want to stop (normally
-   is 1, but you may have more than one).
-   Enter the folder "~/.vnc" and look for the file "xstartup". Edit it and
-   change the string twm with the name of the window manager you want to
-   use (for Window Maker is wmaker). Starting again the vncserver and the
-   vncviewer will show you the new window manager.
