I've installed the MS-Windows version 6.3.0 on a Vista machine along

d.vect -c census_wake2000 disp=shape,attr attrcol=FIPSSTCO siz=5 lcol=black.
It seems to me there are at least 3 ways to do this, and I can only
get one of them to work. Any suggestions on why approaches 2 and 3
below don't work (at least for me)?
1) If I click the "Add command layer" icon of GIS Manager and type the
example, it seems to execute properly.
2) If instead I click the "Add vector layer" icon of GIS Manager and
try to fill in/select the proper commands, I can't get the labels to
appear. Major settings are:
Vector map: census_wake2...@permanent
Display: Shapes Points Lines Boundaries Areas
[...]
Why do the labels not appear on the map?
You also have to display centroids as attributes (and thus labels) are
linked to centroids.
Lastly
3) Typing the example into the bottom window of GIS.m and press ing
the run button, the color map appears in the Map Display 1 window, but
there are no labels,
I find it surprising that you can actually display the map that way. I
don't think that should be possible.
