[GRASS-dev] ./configure --with-python description

Hi,

with configure rev 1.123 we have --with-python added to ./configure.

what does this do? the --help is a bit vague:

  --with-python support PYTHON functionality (default: no)

something to do with SWIG? The new GUI? why all caps?

Yes. It picks the version of Python (maybe more in
future).

The new GUI?

Currently not. Quite certainly in future, once it evolves.

why all caps?

No idea :slight_smile:
I don't know where to change that in configure.in.
