shade.rel.sh is used to generate a shade map in grey scale from a
DTM. This map you can feed later to d.his:

shade.rel.sh altitude=30 azimuth=270 elevation=dtm10
  -> generates dtm10.shade
d.his h=colormap i=dtm10.shade

To store the result, either use the 
 - PNG driver
or
 - r.his...
 - r.composite...

Hope this helps,
