@@ -2,10 +2,11 @@ Grace is a WYSIWYG tool to make two-dimensional plots of numerical
data. It runs under various (if not all) flavors of Unix with X11 and
M*tif (LessTif or Motif). It also runs under VMS, OS/2, and Windows
(95/98/NT/2000/XP). Its capabilities are roughly similar to GUI-based
-programs like Sigmaplot or Microcal Origin plus script-based tools
-like Gnuplot or Genplot. Its strength lies in the fact that it
-combines the convenience of a graphical user interface with the power
-of a scripting language which enables it to do sophisticated
-calculations or perform automated tasks.
