That is right. The vanilla cygwin version is for those cygwin users whole prefer a lean package like the one for Linux, but it requires some setup, including getting an Xserver to work. (I have had such request for a leaner package in the past). <br>
<br>If you want something that works out of the box, get the win32 superpack. If you want to do a vanilla cygwin install, then install grads-1.9.0-rc1-bin-i686-pc-cygwin.tar.gz. I have some additional information here:<br>
