+There are a number of ways to run GRASS without a GUI.
+(for example if the grass-gui package has not been installed)
+
+
+Non-interactive: (e.g. a cron job on a back-end server)
+ Use the GRASS_BATCH_JOB environment variable to set the path to
+ the job script. Note this method may not work over NFS in HPC
+ Grid computing situations. See the GRASS wiki for details and
+ the workaround.
+
+Interactive:
+ To use just the GRASS command line interface most things will
+ work as normal, including d.mon graphics X-monitors and rendering
+ with the PNG drivers. To avoid error messages you will probably
+ want to set "export GRASS_UI_TERM=1" in your ~/.grass.bashrc file
+ and run "g.gui text" within GRASS to set the default GUI mode.
+
+From Quantum GIS or R-Statistics:
+ For use with QGIS you just need the grass-core and grass-doc
+ packages to be installed. For use with R typically you'd start
+ your R session from the GRASS command prompt, but it is
+ technically possible to run GRASS as a background job from R
+ (see the non-interactive notes above).
+
+
+As always, help can be found on the GRASS Wiki site:
+ http://grass.osgeo.org/wiki/
