R: R: [GRASS-windows] Can Only access GUI, no Command Shell

[Marco Pasetti]

Hi Ryan,
 
what you say it's very strange! I actually use line commands in output
window... you just need to type the command you need and press 'Run' button,
or, alternately, press 'Run (GUI)' button to run the command using its GUI.
If you mean, instead, that you need to run Unix-like commands, you need to
start grass from MSYS console, opening MSYS first from GRASS start menu
link, and then typing grass63 (+enter) from MSYS shell; this done, you can
work with both (GUI and MSYS shell), with the advantage in MSYS shell to be
able to use also Unix-like commands (over GRASS in-line commands).
I hope to have been clear.
 
Regards,
 
Marco

Thanks for your response. I installed GRASS using your installer which was
so much easier. 

I still cannot access the GRASS shell to enter commands. How do I access the
GRASS shell/command prompt? If I try to enter commands into the Output
window in the GUI, GRASS cannot find the command.

Hi Ryan,
 
since current releases of winGRASS (with windows installer) contain all
needed softwares and libraries, you don't need to install neither ActiveTcl
nor MSYS, they are already contained in winGRASS package.
To access grass please use only the preinstalled links in GRASS start menu
folder (or desktop).
 
I'm preparing a new winGRASS release (RC6) with a new README file,
containing more detailed information about winGRASS package; while waiting
for the new release, you can temporarily access the document at
http://www.webalice.it/marco.pasetti/temp/README.html

Marco

Hi, 

I recently installed native winGRASS 6.3RC5 and when I run grass63.bat or
grass63 from c:\grass63RC5\bin using the Windows command prompt, the GUI
loads, but there is no GRASS command shell anywhere. The cursor in the
Windows command prompt just blinks. How can I access the GRASS shell? Am I
missing something?

I installed ActiveTcl 8.4 as well as MSYS.

Thanks,
Ryan
