Jean-Marc,

You've applied my configure.m4 patch, but today I realized that
using xmgrace in the actual converter will break the use of LyX
in a batch mode: i.e. when you want to convert a LyX document to,
for example, ps without using LyX' GUI (in the future surely useful!).

As soon as one of the converters Grace->[any format] is called,
xmgrace won't work when the Xserver/DISPLAY-variable is not there.

Therefore I've modified the new lib/configure.m4 again, by not using
xmgrace but gracebat in the actual converter. This will make the
whole Grace conversion full proof against the absence of the Xserver.

I now wonder about the other converters. Are these also fool proof?

Patch to lib/configure.m4 attached.

Regards,
Rob
