I did not knowingly open in batch mode, but assuming I am in batch mode, 
how to I exit it so I can get the display window?

You must be in batch mode, which does not open a display window. Did you use -b when you invoked GrADS ?

You probably have to update your copy of basemap.gs with the full path to the ascii files. 
--Jennifer
p.s. I recently wrote a doc page for basemap: http://iges.org/grads/gadoc/basemap.html
