[Pw_forum] xmgrace installation problem

[Giovanni Cantele]

you can use gnu plot but else xmgrace.

For Mac Os X the most straightforward way to install those packages in through macports, see instruction at 
https://www.macports.org <https://www.macports.org/>
on how to install MacPOrts and, then, external packages.

I tired installing it from http://www.ist-inc.com/motif/download/motif_files/openmotif-compat-2.1.32_IST.macosx10.5.dmg <http://www.ist-inc.com/motif/download/motif_files/openmotif-compat-2.1.32_IST.macosx10.5.dmg>, it actually is installed; but then when I get back to xmgrace installation, it says "configure: error: M*tif has not been found". I tried with its source too (http://www.ist-inc.com/motif/download/motif_files/openmotif-2.1.32_IST.source.tar.gz <http://www.ist-inc.com/motif/download/motif_files/openmotif-2.1.32_IST.source.tar.gz>), but couldn't do it. Please let me know how I can get rid of this issue.
