Re: GRASS GIS and alternative command line terminals in Windows

>For example copy and paste is complicated there

up from win 7 to win 10: you can do simply ctrl-c/ctrl-v e.g. to copy an
example from manual to cmd or if you want to copy something from cmd, just
mark this with the mouse, hit enter, and then ctrl-v.

>or tab completion

at least to complete filenames, e.g. yourgeo.tif; if you're in cmd in the
folder containing this file, just type the first character, hit tab and the
file name will be completed

terminals in windows, so that I >can use basic UNIX based commands.

simple unix commands like e.g. awk or grep etc are already there:

If you observe UnicodeError in Python, install en_US.UTF-8 locale and
restart GRASS.
