The Tk interface should use a spinbox widget instead of a bogus int value
in r.composite for levels. This is exactly what's done in the wx
interface, so there's no reason to use a different paradigm (which is
quite confusing for a naive user). This could also be true for other
modules...

Comment:

The wxpython interface and way of parsing GRASS command arguments is much
more sophisticated than the much older one for TclTk. It would take a
major rewrite of the venerable gui.tcl to add a lot of these new features
and would probably also require that the tcltk output of g_parser be
substantially improved (wxpython reads xml from g_parser). Given that we
are switching interfaces after 6.4 or the 6.x series, I don't think that
this is worth the effort.
