- GRASS GIS - wxPython Graphical User Interface (wxGUI)
- =====================================================
- $Date$
- 1 - REQUIREMENTS
- GRASS GIS >= 6.4
- Python >= 2.4
- Python ElementTree (only for Python 2.4)
- wxPython >= 2.8.10.1
- NumPy >= 1.0.4
- PIL >= 1.1.7
- 2 - STARTUP WITH GRASS INITIALIZATION
- If you want to launch wxPython GUI automatically, start GRASS with
- `--gui` parameter
- $ grass --gui
- 3 - STARTUP FROM GRASS TERMINAL
- Simply run
- $ g.gui wxpython
- from the GRASS terminal.
- You can also specify workspace file to load on startup.
- $ g.gui gui=wxpython workspace=myworkspace.gxw
- 4 - DEBUGGING
- To enable GUI debug messages on given level set WX_DEBUG environment
- variable, e.g.
- $ g.gisenv set="WX_DEBUG=3"
- 5 - CLI BASED DISPLAY USAGE
- Use command d.mon (shell script in gui/scripts directory) to start map
- display:
- GRASS> d.mon wx[0-6]
- After a while, new window should appear. If this is your case, add some
- raster layer to the map display:
- GRASS> d.rast aspect
- And try the vector layer too
- GRASS> d.vect roads
- You should be able to zoom && pan through the map, once the layers are
- displayed. You should be also able to store the display content as well as
- clear the display and start from scratch.
- 6 TRANSLATION HANDLING
- Notes:
- - Help part of menu entries is coming from the module descriptions
- - The menu is maintained manually in xml/menudata.xml
- Update of module description strings in xml/menudata.xml:
- - in a GRASS session, run tools/update_menudata.py
- From this (updated) xml/menudata.xml, the gettext strings are generated
- via Makefile and stored into the file "menustrings.py".
- When generating the po files in locale/po/ but locale/Makefile, all
- .py files are parsed and the strings are stored in locale/po/grasswxpy_XX.po
