Win32 Binaries in v1.9.0-rc1

[Arlindo da Silva]

All,

  Based on early user feedback I have made some small adjustments to the way
Win32 GrADS talks to the Xserver which should make it more stable. The
binaries on sf.net have been refreshed:

http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=161773&package_id=182392

If you have already downloaded the previous version and want a faster
download this time, you can get only the files that have changed from here

    http://opengrads.org/pre-rel/win32
Replace/add these files to folder PCGrADS/win32.

   Let me know if you experience any problems.

       Arlindo
