There are neat icons in the "Output - GIS.m" window. It is not
explained what they are for. Could anybody do it please?
1. Those most colorfull ones, on the left - do they only indicate the
command used? They are button like - but does anything special happen
when I push the button?
2. When I click the command syntax, it is printed in the window below.
But the same happens if I push the button 1. What the difference, if
any? Should both perform the same action?
3. For d.rast, a printer icon pops up. What happens when I press it?
4. Then there is a "window symbol". I can also push it, but nothing
happens. Should anything happen?
See the attached screendump for guiding.
Also - could the mouse cursor change into an arrow when over those
icons/buttons, like it does in main gis.m window?

Sorry I haven't really explained any of this yet. I have no idea where it
should go in the documentation. This is partially the same as the output in
the generic user interface.

They do indeed. When you push the button (gis.m only) the command is copied to
the text box for entering commands at the bottom of the screen.
2. When I click the command syntax, it is printed in the window below.

Both do the same.
3. For d.rast, a printer icon pops up. What happens when I press it?
The output of the command is shown / hidden. Some of the display commands
output a single blank line of text, which isn't very exciting.
4. Then there is a "window symbol". I can also push it, but nothing
happens. Should anything happen?
That's shown when the command originated in gis.m. It's not supposed to be a
button (it's flat) but it's still pushable. The output widget has the ability
to show icons or text for all sorts of statuses or flags. Right now it just
does gis.m, xterm, errors, output, and running.
Also - could the mouse cursor change into an arrow when over those
icons/buttons, like it does in main gis.m window?
