[gradsusr] grads.a8.oga.1 for Mac OSX and libX11

[Ramon Solano]

Using the lib you provided (thanks) GrADS works perfectly.

I tried with two versions I have for libX11.6.dylib I have in my computer:

a) from Apple OS X installation disk (/usr/X11/lib/libX11.6.2.0.dylib)
b) from mac ports (/opt/local/lib/libX11.6.3.0.dylib)

It only worked with the library you provided.

My system is fully up to dat2 from both Apple and MacPorts sources so I wouldn't expected this to happen. I wonder what happened with the other Mac users that downloaded this a8 release, if they had this same problem.

Thanks you for effort developing this.

Where can I get the libX11 that provides version 10.0.0 as required by GrADS? I apologize for this [basic?] question, if such. Or some other workaround? Previous OpenGrads 2.0.a7 works perfectly.
