little clarification:

.grassrc6 holds the GIS variables. It is not a series of shell commands.
It contains things like "DEBUG: 0".

.grass.bashrc (or .grass.cshrc) contains shell commands to be run at
initial mapset selection (creation of session shell). It contains things
like "export GRASS_WIDTH=800".



Maybe .grass6rc exists on your builds for the Mac, I'm not sure, but did
you mean to say .grass.bashrc not .grass6rc?
