[GRASS-user] setting monitor device

GRASS GRASS user

Dear All,

I just intalled the WinGrass 6.3.0 NATIVE for windows and imported a binary map on a mapset environment.
When I try “d.rast myraster” I get:

PNG: GRASS_TRUECOLOR status: TRUE
PNG: collecting to file: C:/GRASS/database/newLocation/PERMANENT/.tmp/3832.0.ppm,
GRASS_WIDTH=387, GRASS_HEIGHT=484

But no information are showed on “Map Display 1” windows.

Need I redirect the raster output to “Map Display 1” or it is the default ?

Thanks in advance,

You cannot control the GUI from the command prompt.

The GUI isn't the same thing as a "monitor". The native Windows
version doesn't have monitors.

If you run d.* commands manually on Windows, they just generate an
image file.
