You can still run GRASS commands from shell scripts, and you can still
use g.parser in shell scripts.

The only thing that has changed is that the build system no longer has
rules for shell scripts. If you want to write a Makefile to install a
shell script, you can't rely upon Script.make or ScriptRules.make, as
they assume that all scripts are Python (i.e. the source file must
have a .py extension, and the installed script will have a .py
extension on Windows).
