[GRASS-dev] Help > About System fixed

I don’t know why I didn’t see this before.

It turned out to be simple to fix the problem with the Help > About System module. Someone had added a line …

source $env(GISBASE)/etc/gm/gm.tcl

This line launched the GIS Manager every time About System was run.

I’ve deleted that line and it seems to work fine now.

I pointed this out about 50 messages back :wink:

The reason that line was added is that tksys.tcl was changed to use
Gm::errmsg, which is (or was) defined in gm.tcl.
