### Installation: Just edit paths for GISBASE, GISDBASE and GISRC
#customize this:
GISDBASE=/home/user/grassdata
GISBASE=/usr/local/grass5
GISRC=$GISDBASE/../.grassrc5

			    batch-grass usage:

    batch-grass runs a command (or executes all commands in a file) in the
grass environment. It simply sets some environmental variables and executes
the commands.

	batch-grass location_name mapset command
	batch-grass location_name mapset -file filename

e.g.,

	batch-grass usgs PERMANENT -file make-quads
