[GRASS-dev] $GISBASE/etc/run what does this do?

[David Finlayson]

Last night I got GRASS to launch and run entirely from Python. No
bourne shell at all. I'm not sure what to do with the signal catching
in the Init.sh script. I was going to look them up on Google and see
what they do. Then decide whether this is a feature that should be
duplicated in Python

Does it control how canceling commands (Ctrl+D, etc.) work?
