Grace stands for "GRaphing, Advanced Computation and Exploration of data." It is a WYSIWYG 2D plotting tool for the X Window System and Motif. Grace runs on practically any version of Unix-like operating system. It has also been successfully ported to VMS, OS/2, and Windows 9*/NT/2000/XP (on Cygwin).

History

Grace is a descendant of Paul Turner's ACE/gr (Grace is also said to stand for "Grace Revamps ACE/gr"), otherwise known as Xmgr. Xmgr was forked as Grace by the Grace development team, led by Evgeny Stambulchik. They released Grace under the GPL. Paul Turner still maintains a closed version of the original Xmgr.

It can be used from a point-and-click interface or scripted (either from the built-in programming language or through a number of language bindings). It performs both linear and nonlinear least-squares fitting to arbitrarily-complex user-defined functions, with or without constraints. Other analysis tools include FFT, integration and differentiation, splines, interpolation and smoothing.
