Please list what you need. We have 92 raster commands present,
I don't see how "a lot of raster commands" are missing. GRASS 5.3
comes with 129 raster commands, but contains several commands which
are not needed (so I excluded them for now).
Just tell me which command(s) you need and I'll add them.

You are right. I am guilty of a bit of hyperbole and it is not 'a lot'. However, I did notice more than a few and some of that seemed important. I started making a list a couple months back when I went through all the commands to do the first run on a 5.7 menu. However, I've let that sit while I've been engulfed by the normal semester insanity and working on the GUI for 5.3.
I will try to get you that interim list soon. When I start in on the 5.7 GUI in earnest, I will note all 'missing' raster commands (and any others--e.g. none of the scripts are there) in a systematic way. I'm sure you are right in that some of these may no longer be needed.

Michael,
for me (anyone else) it is in the range of minutes to add missing
commands:
- create a Makefile (recycle another one)
- create a directory
- add to tools/link.conf the crosslinking to 5.3
- make mix
- compile
Whatever you remember to be missing, just post it.
Sorry to insist, but we should make the move to 5.7 and not
stick with older versions for years.

ok, I'll stay tuned.
