$ cd Desktop $ wget ftp://ftp.fu-berlin.de/unix/graphics/grace/src/grace5/grace-latest.tar.gz $ tar xzvf grace-latest.tar.gz $ cd grace-5.1.22 $ ./configure --x-includes=/usr/X11/include --x-libraries=/usr/X11/lib \ --with-motif-library=-lXm --with-extra-incpath=/usr/OpenMotif/include:/Users/sm4082/fftw-2.1.5/include \ --with-extra-ldpath=/usr/OpenMotif/lib:/Users/sm4082/fftw-2.1.5/lib $ make $ sudo make install $ echo "export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/grace/bin" >> ~/.bashrc $ source ~/.bashrc $ xmgrace
Now you should have xmgrace at your prompt. Cool. Right?

On Lion, wget doesn't work. Use curl -O in place of wget. That is a capital letter o.
Other than that, this worked great for Lion.
Thank you.

Yup, once I used curl -O it worked totally fine! thanks!
Sorry but the execution of your script fails at the configure step on my system 10.5.8 :
checking X11/xpm.h presence... yes
checking for X11/xpm.h... yes
checking for a Motif >= 1002 compatible API... no
configure: error: M*tif has not been found
Afterwards, I have installed Lesstif (instead OpenMotif), but i do not know the 'configure' options.
Do you understand ? If so, could you help me ?
Thank you.

Thank you very much. Nice and quick tutorial. Works perfectly on my MacOS 10.6 :)
Thanks!!! It works, but I'm having problems with PDFlib, since it requires an old version of the library.
thanks worked well for ubuntu 11.10 but got stuck in updates

Hi Amitha, It looks like this is a permission issue. Can you try updating being a root?
I have the same error as Steph, these are my configure options (i installed fftw in a custom directory)
./configure --x-includes=/usr/X11/include --x-libraries=/usr/X11/lib --with-motif-library=-lXm --with-extra-incpath=/usr/OpenMotif/include:/usr/local/fftw-3.3.3/include --with-extra-ldpath=/usr/OpenMotif/lib:/usr/local/fftw-3.3.3/lib
Any help would be appreciated.
Nevermind, homebrew was the solution to my problem! Install grace through it without significant issues. Love package managers!
Is it possible to install Xmgr (the old version) on macOS High Sierra?
If so, it would be great if you can describe the installation step by step with the line commands.
Many thanks,
