Welcome! There is a lot of help on the web and a wealth of expertise available on the mailing lists and via IRC.

Tips for ArcGIS users
Watershed Analysis with GRASS (when you know ESRI)
Whatever-GIS-Software to GRASS command translation table and discussion
GRASS 4 and 5 users: GRASS Module Porting List (check here if you don't find a certain command in GRASS 6)
GRASS 7 users: List of new features in GRASS 7 (new names, options, etc.; check here if you don't find a certain command or module parameter)

Collaboration with external software is highly encouraged.

GRASS GIS is made up of modular tools specifically designed for easy scriptability in any number of common scripting languages, see GRASS and Shell

Interface for direct hooks into higher scripting languages (esp. Python), see GRASS and Python and

if "GRASS_BATCH_JOB=/path/to/script.sh" is set GRASS 6+ will run the script as a batch job and exit when it is complete. Start GRASS with the full path to the mapset to avoid the startup menus. See also GRASS and Shell.
