Hi,

> Two questions about GRACE:
> 1- Why is the folder of GRACE in /usr/ and not in /usr/share/ as
>    everything else?
Because that is the default setting if --prefix is pointing to /usr.
I didn't know that there is a --enable-grace-home=DIR switch for
configure that can be used to change this default as I build that
package.

> 2- Why there is in /bin/ a soft-link to xmgrace.exe while the actual
>    program is in /usr/grace/bin/ ?
That's how "make install links" installs grace.

>    Soft-links are not equivalent to the actual program, e.g. a
>    Windows native cmd batch script cannot run them.
That is true.

>    Happy holidays
Merry Christmas!

   Volker
