Indeed. I focus in `cell_misc` and did not bother to mention this.

If so, I will use it, see then if it creates problems. It will simplify
a bit, and make more readable, the workflow described at:
https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/grass-dev/2017-November/086456.html.

When ready, scripts will go public. Hopes for being useful to many.
For good or for bad, I preferred shell scripting to glue parts together.
uni* tools are so simple and powerful. It is hard to forget this.

Thank you Markus, Nikos
