(/etc/fstab is whitespace delimited) > > Should we (can we?) rewrite that file each time at program startup to reflect the current shortname version of the path? > for this maybe (?) write access is needed in C:\Program Files\GRASS-64-SVN\, but I don't know if this is guaranteed on every windows-installation (see stats.out from r.terraflow).
