the GRASS cvs I didn't compile by myself. It was installed into the system. This days I couldn't run g.mkfontcap, cause I hadn't the permission.

If you don't have permission to modify etc/fontcap, you can use e.g. "g.mkfontcap -s > ~/.gfontcap" to create a personal copy then use e.g. "export GRASS_FONT_CAP=$HOME/.gfontcap" to make GRASS use that file
instead of the system copy.

Glynn,
In this way it works. But do I have to put this

g.mkfontcap -s > ~/.gfontcap
export GRASS_FONT_CAP=$HOME/.gfontca

into the .grass.bashrc, that don't have to export it every time I open a new bash?

(
I opened a new bash and got there:
GRASS:~/gw$ echo $GRASS_FONT_CAP
....
GRASS:~/gw$
)

For my new GRASS svn it doesn't matter, but for me its in general interesting to know how to work with /export/ in such cases. Is there a file where the bash saves all the env-variables and how to influence it.
- But probably this is off-topic...

cheers
