Known problems

  • Zooming and panning do not work.
  • Have to add c:\mingw\bin to PATH on some systems.
    • Shouldn't the MinGW installer add c:\mingw\bin to PATH?
  • Cannot create a new mapset.
    • TclTk -permissions option is specific to UNIX like systems.
  • Cannot change map formatting (colors, type, etc.).
  • Cannot display a thematic layer.
  • Need a decent prompt.

What is missing?

  • Display drivers: socket
    • Use gis.m instead of monitors.
    • Make gis.m Output window more like xterm. No need to hit Run.
    • Is there any way that the Map Display in gis.m can interact with console commands? IPC? File Alteration Monitor?
