[PD-dev] error handlers

2007-09-21 Thread Ed Kelly
Hi list, I've just been looking through source code from cvs, picking at random, and looking for an example of the void error (char *fmt, ...) from the externals howto. I can't find one anywhere! Am I stating the obvious here? It's just that this means that PD patches made using anything

[PD-dev] [ANN] mostly for devs and tcl'ers: tclpd

I've put tclpd in externals/ since a few days. even if the example I provided it is usable, perhaps it misses much features. I still miss some ideas for libpd.tcl (a nifty library for wrapping the pd api) I would like to throw it in here, hoping some dev/tcl coder is interested in trying it,

[PD-dev] more on the 12 point font mystery

2007-09-21 Thread Hans-Christoph Steiner
I decided to take Pd out of the equation, so I did a quick test using just Tcl/Tk on Mac OS X and Ubuntu Studio. It looks like it confirms what I am talking about: for some reason 12 point is big on GNU/ Linux. So I think we can handle this by forcing 12 point fonts to actually use 11
