Works here, both OS X 10.5 and 10.6.

One thing I noticed is that after selecting the shell in the tool list, the window is not active (the cursor is a hollow rectangle) and typing anything does not work. After cllicking the window to activate it, I can type "@". What doesn't work that could be a problem for non-english users is accented characters. It show the accent as you type like it should (ie option-e for ´), but when you type the letter next the accent disappears and it's waiting for the next keystroke.

Another thing in the GRASS shell - no copy or paste of text.

Hi,

One thing I noticed is that after selecting the shell in the tool list, the window is not active (the cursor is a hollow rectangle) and typing anything does not work.

we were already typing a command, so it is not the case.

After cllicking the window to activate it, I can type "@". What doesn't work that could be a >problem for non-english users is accented characters. It show the accent as you type like it >should (ie option-e for ´), but when you type the letter next the accent disappears and it's >waiting for the next keystroke.

for sure the keyboard wasn't english (pt-pt) and the hardware was a 13 inches Apple laptop (don't know how is called).

the problem has been confirmed on other Apple hardware (keyboards not US), but as I already said in other tickets, I'm just collecting OsX users feedback as I don't own any Apple hardware.

Another thing in the GRASS shell - no copy or paste of text.

I can copy/paste under Linux with shift-ctrl-c/shift-ctrl-v
