when I typed xganim, the answer is command not found

It is present in 6.4, but GRASS needs to be built with motif/lesstif
support for xganim to be there.

Install the lesstif2-dev package and "./configure --with-motif"

A TclTk replacement for xganim is included in GRASS 6.3 and above. It
is a little nicer than the original and doesn't require motif/lestif.

Note that it's part of gis.m, not a standalone program.

In 7.0, the standalone xganim has been re-written using wxWidgets; it
could probably use some testing.

If it is the module in bin with the same name (i.e, xganim), I tried it and it doesn't work on the Mac at least. It opens and loads the files, but the interface locks up and none of the buttons are responsive.
