[GRASSLIST:2859] GRASS File structure for projects

[Keene Haywood]

Hello GRASS users.  I am new to GRASS and am using it on a PowerMac with
OS X.  I've made a little headway in understanding how GRASS works
through the tutorial that is posted for v.4.0.  However, I am still in
the dark about exactly how file need to be organized in GRASS to be used
with a project.  Also, exactly how does GRASS output files as well.  What
sort of directory structure needs to be in place?  I tried setting up a
directory the same as the tutorial one, but I could not get GRASS to
recognize the files.

In particular, I would like to import a DRG tiff file, but can't seem to
get GRASS to do this. It goes through the motions of importing, but the
map does not show up in the monitor. 

I seem to remember a similar question about project and directory
organization in GRASS that was posted to this list not long ago.  Any
help with this would be appreciated.

Thanks very much,
