Preferences not saved

[cmbarton]

With the new preferences location for GRASS 7, the .grasswx7 file is not being saved. Trying to save generates an error. In fact, I'm not sure that the new location is even being made. I'll see if I can find it but I want to get this reported in case I run short on time.

Additional info on this. The error raised is below. A really weird thing is that it is somehow finding my source directory for GRASS 7 instead of either my Home directory or the Directory it is run from (/Applications/grass)

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "/Users/cmbarton/grass_dev/grass70_dev/dist.i386

-apple-darwin9.8.0/etc/wxpython/gui_modules/preferences.py", line 1760, in OnSave

file = self.settings.SaveToFile()

The problem was that if the new ~/.grass7 directory did not exist it would cause an error. Fixed in r39935. If the directory does not exist, the module tries to create it, raising an error if it is unable to do so.
