[GRASS-user] Importing multiple files with r.in.xyz

[Hanlie Pretorius]

My apologies for my ignorance, but how do I get this to run in Linux?
Am using Ubuntu 10.04 and GRASS 6.4RC6.

I entered the following into the GRASS text window and am testing it
with a list of two files (I removed the region settings because the
files all have the same region, which I have already set):
-----
GRASS 6.4.0RC6 (world_wgs84):~ > cat lieb_files_test.txt
3B42.000201.12.6.nc.lieb.txt
3B42.000201.15.6.nc.lieb.txt
GRASS 6.4.0RC6 (world_wgs84):~ > cat lieb_files_test.txt | while read line; do
>  echo $line+" being processed"
> raster=${$line:(-12)} # cut ".nc.lieb.txt" from raster name
> r.in.xyz --overwrite input=$line output=raster method="mean" type="FCELL" fs=, x=2 y=1 z=3
>
-----

As you can see, when I press enter after the r.in.xyz line, I just get
another prompt.

Am I supposed to save it to a separate file and run this as a script?
If so, where should I put this script?
