Hello Sanjeev,

Xmgrace complains here because the configuration process cannot find the
Motif widget toolkit libraries - the toolbox that relates back to
OSF/Motif and manages the windows, buttons, style ... of this graphic
application. In order to compile xmgrace, you need to install Motif
development libraries or a compatible ones - OpenMotif or lesstif and
this procedure depends on the platform you're using. On a Linux Redhat
variant, I would look for openmotif packages with a yum search
openmotif, on OSX with a fink list openmotif4 ... check your
distribution repositories, it is a classic libraries set to install.
More info on http://www.openmotif.org/ or http://www.lesstif.org/

Kind regards,

Alain
