Dear R-gurus,

(native wingrass)

I have a script under c:/grass/scripts and I start it invoking
GRASS MSYS Console and calling the script. But
when I do that I can´t see which command are
running. Is there a way of I see the command that
are running?

Best wishes,

Which script language are we speaking about here: bash, R, other ?

Hi Moritz,

It is a good question. As I am running Native Wingrass from GRASS MSYS, I believe the it is “bash”.

You could add some echo lines before each important comand so the
script will print whatever is doing. Something like this:

echo "Erasing all. Goodbye cruel world"
g.mremove rast=*

IMPORTANT: DO NOT EXCECUTE ABOVE LINE (left -f switch off on purpose)

If you add the command "set -x" to the top of the script, bash will
print each command as it executes it.
