[GRASS-dev] pygrass vs grass python scripting library

[Paulo van Breugel]

I am trying to familiarize myself a bit with python scripting in GRASS. 
I am a bit confused about the different approaches that seem possible. 
More specifically, there is the pygrass 
(http://grasswiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Python/pygrass) and grass python 
scripting library (
http://grasswiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GRASS_Python_Scripting_Library). Is 
there somewhere a concise description explaining the difference between 
the two. And for writing python scripts (addons), which of these two are 
a better option to use (for somebody fairly familiar with GRASS, with 
some experience in writing shell or R scripts for GRASS, but with no 
experience at all with python).

Cheers,

Paulo
