Josh,
I use R & GRASS together on both MacOS X and Linux without problems.
It's very direct to write a shell script that calls both R & GRASS
within a single script. Writing a R script that calls GRASS may be more
tedious to do what you want. Writing a shell script that calls both may
be the wat to go.

Thanks for the suggestions so far regarding the use of GRASS or SAGA.
We have considered those options but SAGA doesn't appear available for
MacOS. My understanding is that spgrass6 is more for accessing R
code/functions from within GRASS vs accessing GRASS functions from
within R. We have all our other analysis coded up in R, and just need
these functions to do one part of a bigger process. Maybe I'm
misunderstanding how to use R and GRASS together. I'll do some further
research.
Thanks again
Josh

Hello
We are looking to mimic, in R, the slope (max magnitude difference
between a cell and its neighbors) and aspect (direction of maximum
magnitude difference) functions found in ESRI's Spatial Analyst
package. We were just about to code up the slope function but thought
I would make sure we weren't re-inventing any wheels already out there.
Thanks
Josh
