<p class="MsoNormal">Yes, they should not work unless you are working from a cygwin shell; these wrappers are written in perl, for windows I've rewritten them in visual basic (see scripts above Contents/.) If you are not a cygwin user, you need not worry about
these details. Just install the Windows superpak, let it automatically add the "grads" bin directory to your path and you should be good to go, either from the [start] menu, from a icon on your desktop or from the windows command line (cmd.exe).<u></u><u></u></p>

of these (e.g. bin) then Windows ask me which program I want to use to open the file. If these symbolic links don’t function anymore, then that is okay for me but I thought that these symbolic links are a nice addition :-)<u></u><u></u></span></p>
