 Hi,

 to make running GRASS_BATCH_JOBs a bit easier to use (and to avoid the
 common :-) mistake of not `unset`ing it after), it would be nice if the
 main grass7 startup script could parse the command line argv[] options for
 batch=, check that the script exists and is executable, then use it
 instead of looking for a GRASS_BATCH_JOB enviro variable?

 perhaps with that done GRASS_BATCH_JOB could be retired for GRASS 7.0?
 (or would there still be some reason to keep it as an alternate method?)


 thanks,
 Hamish
