Hi,before releasing 6.3.0 we should change wxGui workspace file extension
away from .grc as it is incompatible with older GRASS tcl/tk .grc files.some suggestions from the -dev list:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gis.grass.devel/24737/focus=24934but nothing decided.
I relooked at the discussion. I don't have particularly strong feelings one way or the other. But if you need a decision, I'd favor either *.gws (GRASS workspace) or *.gwsf (GRASS workspace file)
I did a search on a couple of file extension sites. *.gwsf did not exist and *.gws was found on only one site. It was listed as a GeoMedia (Intergraph) geoworkspace file format.
So I guess we'd be wise to steer clear of *.gws. But *.gwsf seems fine.
Anyone have any objection to *.gwsf?
