Bob,
We've been using GRASS on Silicon Graphics for several years, but I've
never tried installing the binary distribution that's on moon. The
environment variables you mentioned should be set at startup automatically
(reading them from your .grassrc file) by the program g.gisenv, called
from GIS.sh. It looks to me like g.gisenv is failing, but I'd have to
see the error messages you're getting. You might try remaking the links
to front.end by running CMD/MAKELINKS.
I'm compiling GRASS4.1 for IRIX5.2 as we speak, so there will probably be
a new binary distribution of this available within a week or so (The
current binary was compiled under IRIX4.0.5, I think). If you're running
pre-5.0 IRIX, you won't be able to use the new binary when it's released,
though because SGI changed their executable format. The current binary
release should work on IRIX4.x or IRIX5.x.
I'm not aware of any SGI-specific problems with hard links or FIFOS in
GRASS.

I have not had any problems with GRASS4.1 with IRIX 4.0.5. I don't use
the binary ftp version and had no problem installing it. I would be *very*
interested in knowing how the IRIX5.2 installation goes. Also, I didn't
realize that SGI binaries were not upwards compatible with IRIX5.2.

I have managed to find tutorials for v.digit, r.mapcalc, r.combine, and
r.infer at the FTP site moon.cecer.army.mil.
I cannot find the tutorial for r.watershed. Does anyone know where I can
find this tutorial (or any additional tutorials)?
