Hi,

currently when you try to run a d.* command from the wxGUI command prompt
you get a somewhat bewildering error message about it not yet being
implemented. Better would be if the command was automatically added as a
new command layer in the layer manager.

Comment(by annakrat):

Currently for most important d. commands including d.rast and d.vect it
works, see
[http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/browser/grass/branches/releasebranch_6_4/gui/wxpython/gui_core/goutput.py#L505
here]. Question is if we should support also other
[http://grass.osgeo.org/grass70/manuals/html70_user/display.html d.
commands]?

Comment(by rashadkm):

could you tell which commands are not available?
Most of them works d.barscale,d.rast.leg etc..

Comment(by hamish):

Yup, most of the relevant ones all seem to be there now.

Remaining of possible interest are d.text and d.graph(requires an input
file).
d.graph is there in trunk, may be more interesting in future if we can add
support to have it read+plot eps and svg, or write a standalone converter
to create d.graph command input from eps,svg. (a GSoC idea)

d.rast.leg is not there in 6.x, not sure if that matters or even works in
the wxGUI.
d.histogram is also not in 6.x.

Low-value + perhaps not of interest for 6.x are: d.frame (wouldn't work
right?), d.split.frame(as with d.frame, any purpose?), and d.linegraph.

not in any goutput.py: d.correlate, d.polar

fyi bug in 6.x goutput.py; "d.shaded" should have been d.shadedmap (fixed
in svn).
