[GRASSLIST:3124] Re: Problem using Monitors from a fully scripted GRASS session

[Karine ZUERCHER]

Glynn, this was great!

I added:
--------
LOCATION=$GISDBASE/$LOCATION_NAME/$MAPSET
export LOCATION
--------
to my script, and now all monitors work perfectly (without any need for:
sleep 3
)

Thanks a lot Glynn !

In Kindness
