Thanks for the help, but I am not quite clear on the part you say
the script has to be an executable. I copied and pasted the script
from the wiki page and stored it in ~/Library/GRASS/6.4/Modules/bin;
called the script by typing it (called chlatransl) to the Terminal
shell. It said "chlatranl not found". How do I compile the script
to make it an executable. Right now it is stored in a text file.
So, the script is: ~/Library/GRASS/6.4/Modules/bin/chlatransl
Take that chmod command I mentioned and type in the Terminal:
chmod +x ~/Library/GRASS/6.4/Modules/bin/chlatransl
I apologize for being naive.

Hi Everyone,
I am a beginner user of GRASS (I normally use ArcGIS) running on
Mac OS X Grass 6.4 ORC5.
I am trying to process MODIS chlor-a images according to the MODIS
Wiki page. There are many scripts on the wiki page that I would
like to use; however, I do not know how to:
1) save the script file, i.e. what file extension to I use?
use whatever filename the script has (or is specified). No
extension needed, but 'sh' is the standard shell script extension.
But it does need to be executable, which won't be true if you
download the raw script text or copy-n-paste. It should be set if
the script is compressed.
In a Terminal, type this (drag-n-drop the script from a Finder
window to the Terminal to paste the path to the script):
chmod +x /path/to/script
