Subject: typos in Win installation instructions

Platform: WindowsNT/2000/XP
grass obtained from: Mirror of Trento site
grass binary for platform: Compiled from Sources
GRASS Version: 5.4.0

Bas Amelung

Downloaded Grass 5.4.0 and tried to install it following instructions on:
http://grass.itc.it/grass54/binary/mswindows_cygwin/

Two typos in following section:
"Open a cygwin shell window and follow the instruction below: 
      cd /cygdrive/c/download/grass
      sh grass5.4.0_i686-pc-cygwin-install.sh grass5.4.0_i686-pc-cygwin.tar.gz
cd /
      tar xvfz /cygdrive/c/download/grass/tcltk-8.4.7-cygwin.tar.gz
      tar xvfz /cygdrive/c/download/grass/Mesa-6.2-cygwin.tar.gz
      tar xvfz /cygdrive/c/download/grass/gdal-1.2.3-cygwin.tar.gz
      cd"

"sh grass5.4.0_i686-pc-cygwin-install.sh grass5.4.0_i686-pc-cygwin.tar.gz"
should be
"sh grass5.4.0_i686-pc-cygwin_install.sh grass5.4.0_i686-pc-cygwin_bin.tar.gz"
So: in first section: cygwin_install, rather than cygwin-install

and in last section: cygwin_bin.tar, rather than cygwin.tar


Since the lines are quite long, it took me a while to find out where the errors
where even if the system indicated that the filename was wrong.
