DESCRIPTION

g.findetc is designed for Bourne shell scripts that need to search for support data, programs and subfoldrs in any number of directories as specified in GRASS_ADDON_ETC, plus the GRASS application etc/ directory. This is designed for addon scripts that are installed outside the GRASS application directory, such as a user's home or a system addon directory.
