Starting grass64 with the '-wxpython' option does not appear to provide a
window where I can manually enter a command. I found the menu item for
r.in.gdal, and that brought up a tabbed window where I could specify the
location of the hdr.adf. But, when I entered all the data and clicked the
'Run' button, an error message appeared that the units were not specified.
While the projection is called "Oregon Conformal Conic" for the location I
selected "Lambert Conformal Conic LCC", and entered the projection origin,
first and second standard parallels, central meridian, false easting and
northing, then specified the datum as NAD83 (with option 6 for Washington
and Oregon), and the ellipsoid as GRS80. The horizontal units are meters
(since this is a 10m DEM file), but the elevation units are in feet.
What might I have missed in specifying this location and trying to import
the GRID file?

Fixed this, too. For whatever reason, the metadata file's projection
information did not match that of the data files. So, after seeing the
errors, I check the option of overriding the location's data with that in
the file and it's working just fine now.

Martin,
Thank you. I saw that after sending the message.
I really appreciate the work of those folks who developed the wxPython
GUI. Years ago I started doing the same thing, but stopped when my business
moved away from GIS-related projects. While I normally prefer a CLI, for
certain applications (such as GRASS and using LyX rather than LaTeX in
emacs), the GUI is much more efficient. My thanks to them!
Now I have the potential of incorporating spatial analyses in the projects
we do so I'll be more fully participating on the list and probably
contributing code to the project.
