[GRASS-user] Displaying thematic vector legend in map display window?

GRASS GRASS user
1

I've loaded a vector map (MIF/MID format), then created a thematic
vector map layer (area) via d.vect.thematic GUI window (Output legend
for GIS manager is ticked; save thematic commands is ticked). I've
used psmap to create .ps file containing the thematic vector map with
it's corresponding legend. This works.

Is it possible to display the thematic vector map legend in the map
display window? If so, how?

I'm a new user to GRASS, using winGRASS 6.4.0RC5 (wxPython GUI) on MS
Windows XP.

Thanks in advance for help.

I assume that you use the TclTK GUI.
I think that the display still depends on X11 which isn't usually available
on Windows.

Did you try the new wxPython GUI?
