Joe,

Since you're writing GRASS commands in a script that you'd enter from the
console, the script is a bash shell script. Just begin it as usual using
#!/usr/bin/bash
and enter commands as you would from the GRASS prompt.

As Veronica showed, there's a lot of documentation around on the net:
would you also suggest a good text book or you think it shouldn't be
necessary for a beginner to learn grass?

GRASS changes pretty rapidly. My advice to you as a new user is look at some
of the application examples that are relevant to what you want to do. You
can also browse the module manual pages, including the add-ons.

HTH,

Rich
