sure, as long as they have their executable bit set and are in
the search path.

FWIW, I try to copy custom stuff into a dir outside the install
dir which is pointed to by the GRASS_ADDON_PATH environment
variable, that way I can replace & upgrade grass versions
without accidentally deleting all my custom scripts.
see the "variables" help page.

In the (wx)GIS Layer Manager window theres a button for it with
what looks like a tiny prompt (>_) just to the left of one
with a paperclip. In the TclTk GUI the button looks like a cross
between a cog and a flower.
