1 Grace is a WYSIWYG 2D plotting tool, a descendant of ACE/gr, also known as Xmgr.
2 It has a convenient point-and-click graphical user interface, allows precise
3 control of graph features, and does instant plot refresh. Grace enables you to
4 reach true publication quality.
5 Grace can export graphics to vector formats ((E)PS, MIF, and SVG) as well
6 as bitmap ones (PNG, PNM, and JPEG). It does a precise rendering of Type1 fonts.
7 Grace manages unlimited numbers of graph, of curves in each graph, and unlimited
8 data size. It has much flexibility in graphing options (colors, symbols, line
9 and text styles).
10 One of the prominent features is integrated data manipulation tools: versatile
11 curve fitting, FFT, histograms, convolution... (This version is compiled
12 without support for the NetCDF data format.) Grace can be scripted with its
13 own language, and also offers library functions to control it from a C or
14 Fortran application.
