Re: [GRASS-user] online documentation is off

2008-01-26 Thread Markus Neteler
Right - I have now removed "Italy".

It would be cool to have PHP based IP geolocating here, to auto-insert
the location.
Any ideas how to implement that?

cool, we need more people :-) We have to move to WPS 1.0.0, so I'm
looking forward to see your code ;-)

As others were mentioning before me, it was discussed several times ago.
When I started to experiment with Python GUI in GRASS, I took Gtk,
because of I simply liked it. Then Michael started to experiment, mainly
on Mac OS and wxWidgets seemed the best choice for him. Others were not
complaining. When we asked around, how the best approach should be, we
were told to use Java :-(

Maybe next GRASS GUI will be Qt :-) But the current (wxWidgets-based)
should be here at least as long, as the Tcl/Tk was.

Just my 2 cents

I only know (and have installed on firefox) this plug-in...

http://geolocatefox.mozdev.org/

But rarely I see geo-location information about websites.

Cheers!

Apparently stroke fonts fail -- do things like d.legend or d.text print
text? 'unset GRASS_FONT' ?
self compilied? from original source or debian build?

It is a moving target, so usually you'd build it yourself, e.g.
  http://hamish.bowman.googlepages.com/debiangisfiles#compile
or get debian build rules from DebianGIS svn and run auto-build tools.

you might ask on the DebianGIS mailing list for better advice:
  http://wiki.debian.org/DebianGis

GRASS 6.2.3 (in unstable now, soon to be in testing and etch-backports)
is fine for most work and is well tested.

Currently at backports.org for Debian/Etch is version 6.2.1
  http://packages.debian.org/grass

[GRASS-user] Trouble using two screens

2008-01-26 Thread Kurt Springs

Hi folks,

I was looking at some work this evening using GRASS 6.3.  I use two  
monitors that run as a continuous unit so they act as one monitor.   
Once GRASS was running, I tried to shift a few GRASS windows out of  
the way and they seem to get stuck between then two monitors.  I can  
get most of the window onto my second monitor, but  I can't move it  
completely onto the second screen.  My other programs are working  
fine.  I recently upgraded to OS X 10.5.1 Leopard.  Could this have  
something to do with it?
