Hi,
Unlike the distributions of all other packages the distribution
 of grace does not put the executable program in one of the standard
 directories /bin or /usr/X11R6/bin. Instead it puts xmgrace.exe inside
 /usr/share/grace/bin. In /bin there are only links pointing to the
 actual .exe. The problem is that non-cygwin programs do not understand
 such links.  
  
I think that the grace distribution should be like those of all other
cygwin programs.

greetings
RM
