	The '''Cartographic Composer''' (so called ''wx.psmap'') is a GUI application which allows GRASS users to prepare interactively hardcopy map outputs. The application can write a instructions file for GRASS module {{cmd\|ps.map}}, and then run this module on the background to create PostScript output directly. See the [http://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/grass-user/2011-March/060158.html announcement] in the mailing list. See also the {{cmd\|wxGUI.psmap~~\|version=70~~\|desc=manual}}.
