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

[razmjooeis at faunalia.co.uk]

Open gedit (from Accessories) and copy paste the the commands into it.
Save the file to the same location as your raster and your files.txt file
call it import_xyz.sh

Now, open grass from terminal
Once in grass environment...change directory to your file
sh import_xyz.sh

Cheers
Saber
