Nozhan, You will find that you have more control working at the console, particularly when the wxGUI does not recognize files you want to use. The GUI can be quite useful, but working at the console is preferred by those who are used to working on consoles in linux, *BSD, and various unices. Also, you can write scripts to perform repetative or complex processes and run them from the command line. The GUI does not support this. Either on a 'getting started' or wiki page is a list of commands to start grass. In your installation 'grass' and 'grass74' are synonymous. If you run multiple versions (e.g., 7.4.x and 7.5svn) then you want to assign each to a unique name.
