Subject: cannot start tcltkgrass: xwininfo error

Platform: WindowsNT/2000/XP
grass obtained from: Trento Italy site
grass binary for platform: Downloaded precompiled Binaries
GRASS Version: GRASS 5.0.2 (April 2003)

I cannot start tcltkgrass.

1. In cygwin window, I typed: startxwin.bat
2. In X terminal, I started GRASS with: grass5
3. I typed: tcltkgrass &, then the following popup appears

Title: Error in startup script
Message:
/usr/X11R6/bin/xwinfo: error: No such window with id 0x24030c. while executing
"exec xwininfo -id [winfo id .w_g] | grep -i Corners"
 invoked from within 
"scan [exec xwininfo -id [winfo id .w_g] | grep -i Corners] {%*s %d%d} dx dy"
(file "/usr/local/grass5/tcltkgrass/main/gui.tcl" line 1887) invoked from within
"source $env(TCLTKGRASSBASE)/main/gui.tcl"
 (file "/usr/local/grass5/bin/tcltkgrass" line 21)

PS. window id is changed each time I typed tcltkgrass & command

Please inform me what to do.

Ensure that you are using a Unix/X11 version of Tcl/Tk, such as the
"xtcltk" package from the GRASS site. tcltkgrass will not work with a
Windows version of Tcl/Tk, nor with Cygwin's Tcl/Tk package.

If you have multiple versions of Tcl/Tk installed, getting tcltkgrass
to use the correct version can be complicated. Uninstalling Cygwin's
Tcl/Tk package will solve this problem; however, a number of Cygwin
packages (notably Cygwin's version of gdb) won't work without the
Cygwin Tcl/Tk package.

I could resolve the problem!

I used the Cygwin's Tcl/Tk package and could't start tcltkglass.
According to your instruction, I uninstalled the Cygwin's Tcl/Tk libraries,
and got the X Tcl/Tk libraries from GRASS site, instead.
So I could start tcltkgrass on Windows.

Thank you so much for your help.
