Greetings,

I am writing some simple parallel grass wrappers using shell scripts.

What does g.parser’s gisprompt do? I looked at the documentation for g.parser but its still not clear to me.

Thanks!

AFAIK, it defines what type of information a specific option will prompt for. This is especially helpful for the GUI as it allows to chose the correct widgets.
