xgrass (users sharing data)

What you need to do is to update what mapsets are in your search path.

Using xgrass, click on Map Management, then on Access, then on Set
Mapset Search Path.

Once the Path screen comes up, add or delete mapsets from your search
path choosing from the list of available mapsets

When you have another user's mapset in your search path, you can then
use GRASS commands to display, copy, and use the data layers from that
user's mapset. You will not be able to make changes in the files
from other mapsets because you don't own these mapsets.

Xgrass question?

How can "user follett" display "user maxwell" evap data?

It seems to me that in xgrass if a user does not OWN a Mapset, they
have no access to other users data.
We set up this directory structure using GrassWorks, and CAN access each
others data. Is there a way to modify xgrass to grant read access to other
users data? any ideas?

thankyou...
