#1340: wxGUI uses improper .grassrc syntax and may cause .grassrc file corruption
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
Reporter: marisn | Owner: grass-dev@…
     Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: blocker | Milestone: 6.4.1
Component: wxGUI | Version: svn-releasebranch64
Keywords: | Platform: Unspecified
      Cpu: Unspecified |
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
For historical reasons init.sh and gis_set.tcl use following .grassrc
syntax:
{{{
IDENTIFIER: STRING
}}}
For some strange reason wxGUI uses (note extra space after identifier):
{{{
IDENTIFIER : STRING
}}}
As init.sh and gis_set.tcl both expect no extra space after identifier,
some of their regexp's doesn't work as expected leading to improper
results.

Steps to reproduce:
  * rm .grassrc6
  * start GRASS with -text or -tcltk
  * quit GRASS
  * start GRASS with -wxpython and choose different mapset
  * quit GRASS
  * inspect .grassrc6 file -> it contains TWO lines MAPSET!
