I tried the suggestion had success after changing USR1 to SIGUSR1: cat d.mon #!/bin/sh export GRASS_PNGFILE=/tmp/grass7map.bmp export GRASS_PNG_MAPPED=TRUE d.erase # create the file export GRASS_PNG_READ=TRUE ximgview map.bmp percent=0 & export GRASS_NOTIFY='kill -SIGUSR1 `pidof ximgview`' # d.* commands follow (I also tried gqview which offers limited zoom capabilities.)
