Hi all,

I recently installed grads and am able to plot the examples, but keep receiving this error message in the terminal:

Error opening stroke character data set 
  Data set names = /usr/bin/grads/font0.dat ; font0.dat

Below are the specifics of my computer and grads configuration.  Thank you in advance for your help!
