Hi Miha, Hi Glynn,

there are two versions of the package on the server:
wingrass_generic (without X server, but IHMO not fully functional)
wingrass_xserver (requires X server, from cygwin or commercial X
server).

The xserver version is still pre3, because i got from different postings
the impression that there is no longer need for a X server version and
that the generic version will be functional very soon. 
Perhaps some clarification is needed, as i think it is too much work to
support two versions. 

Andreas
