quitting wxGUI

Hi all,

I'm testing grass6.4.0RC3 gain from osgeo4w installer, on xp.

in manual C:\OSGeo4W\apps\grass\grass-6.4.0RC3\docs\html\wxGUI.html
it is said:
"The GUI can be quit by selecting the 'File->Exit' menu item. The GUI
can be restarted from the GRASS command line prompt by typing
g.gui wxpython"

This is not quite true:  'File->Exit' quits grass and all you have is
osgeo4w command line window which, not surprisingly, does not
understand 'g.gui wxpython' command.

Does it work on linux or mac?

Can anyone help me to compile the latest snapshot on win or send me
his compiled package (since I'm not a real boy)
1500 fixes makes a difference...

Cheers
Milena

Hi Milena,
You're quite right, there currently does not seem to be a way to
restart the GUI within the windows installation. This is true if you
start grass from the desktop icon, from the osgeo4w shell, or even
using a modified grass64 file taken from the non-osgeo4w installation.
In the last case, there is a grass prompt where you can type "g.gui
wxpython" but nothing happens.

Please signal this in the GRASS bugtracker if not already reported.

Thanks
