I remember there was discussion about renaming wxgrass [1]. Before
wxgui will be used by users, I would like to raise this question

the whole thread, more ideas:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gis.grass.devel/21880I think we should rename wxgrass script to wxgui
+1, although it is a bit generic?
eg possible namespace collision with python-gnuradio. [apt-file search]
(that seems just to be a directory name, but ...)
I guess as long as it's an internal grass module and not in /usr/bin
it's ok?
+1
When do you want to do it? ASAP as far as I'm concerned.
and create module like g.gui or whatever (?)
+0 for the name. Sounds ok.
+0 for me too.
Sounds OK. I can help if it's a Python or Bash script, not if it's in C

I suppose g.gui will be a script, and it should use the normal parser
unless there is some big reason not to. So --tcltk option would become
g.gui gui=[wxpy|tcltk|oldtcltk]
or whatever names you like, with the default set to ...IIUC d.m and gis.m will be dropped for GRASS 7. I think it is ok to
mandate Python for GRASS 7 but we should keep it optional for GRASS 6.
.... So what language to write g.gui in?
Both /bin/sh + .bat versions depending on platform via Makefile magic?
Do it in C?Hamish
