yes, it does require an X server on win32

the good news is that both Grace and XFree86 are now bundled with
Cygwin ("Cygwin - don't leave Unix without it", http://cygwin.com/)

even though XFree86 is certainly usable on win32, I must say I'm
partial to the non-free X server X-Win32 (http://www.starnet.com/)
