On https://grass.osgeo.org/grass79/manuals/grass7.html , regarding running
batch jobs, it needs to be mentioned
how to suppress these six verbose lines,
{{{
$ grass --exec true 2>&1 | nl
1 Starting GRASS GIS...
2 Cleaning up temporary files...
3 Executing <true> ...
4 Execution of <true> finished.
5 Cleaning up default sqlite database ...
6 Cleaning up temporary files...
}}}
in order to have a clean running batch job, (e.g., one that could be
run by cron without sending the user an email message due to errors.)
Alas, the grass man page does not list a --quiet option.
Sure, the man page could simply say to use 2>&- or 2>/dev/null,
but that would also wipe out real error messages.
