All grass commands can be run either from the gui or command line. The gui just creates the command and executes it. So you can create a shell script with a text editor that has all your commands, and does the usual things that shell scripts can do and run it from the window that appears when you launch grass.

Subject: [GRASS-user] automating map production in Grass
To: grass-user@lists.osgeo.orgHi,
I am just beginning to work with Grass, although I
am fairly experienced with ArcGIS, including
scripting for map production and geoprocessing
(Python and VBA). Basically, I am looking to
automate map production in Grass, using a script
(Python or Perl preferably?). (I have to output
several hundred maps, based on sections of a polygon
layer). Since I am just beginning to use Grass, I am
wondering if anyone could please give me an idea if
this type of task can be accomplished in Grass.
Thanks very much,
Alysson
