Could someone write an easy-to-understand, step-by-step guide on how to install Grace (the WYSIWYG 2D plotting tool) on Windows 7 64-bit? I've read a lot and I still don't understand how to install it.

From the README.packages file on the Grace FTP server:
Win9*/NT/2k/XP:
Grace package is now a part of the Cygwin (http://cygwin.com/) distro.
http://cygwin.com/cgi-bin2/package-grep.cgi?grep=grace/grace
There also is a windows version called qtgrace: http://sourceforge.net/projects/qtgrace/
Just unzip and launch bin/qtgrace.exe
It uses grace (console version) as a backend. Xmgrace is the wysiwyg version on linux side that also uses grace as a backend. Qtgrace is a native windows application that uses QT in similar fashion than Xmgrace uses X and motif.
