Hamish, The quick startup has the instruction for switching to the TclTk GUI as g.gui -ui. I think that should be g.gui gui=tcltk -ui Otherwise it looks good. The one-page overview is great.

The computational region should be set earlier, also for shaded relief and watershed analysis. E.g. cut and paste from 3D visualization "First verify that the computational region is set match the raster map of interest, “elevation” in the PERMANENT mapset. To do this, load it into the layer list of the main Layer Manager window, right click on its name and select “Set computation region from selected map(s)”."

[GRASS-user] 1-page grass overview
Hi, for the upcoming FOSS4G conference[1] we have put together a live dvd[2] with GRASS and a whole bunch of other OSGeo software, about 40 FOSS geo projects are participating in all. It would be great if folks could read through the 1-page overview doc[3] for GRASS (made with reStructured Text and Sphinx if you wondered), and the 5 minute quickstart tutorial[4]. A full list of project docs on the disc is interesting to look through as well.[5] Also if anyone is really keen they can download an ISO of the DVD[6] and test that it actually works. I've already discovered that the new QGIS 1.5 grass plugin doesn't like the user not owning the PERMANENT mapset, even if it's not the one being used. Test results to the OSGeo wiki[7] and bugs to the osgeo bug trac'er[8] please (including doc bugs; set component as LiveDVD). it goes to the printers next week.
