The offending line is in:
qt_gpapply_jzplot_=: 3 : 0
*rc=. glcmds`glcmds_jglc_@.(Poutput=iQTC) buf*
assert. 0=rc [ 'glcmds buf'
buf=: $0
)
It runs a choice of "cd" calls (one of which crashes)…
glcmds_jgl2_=: chkgl2@:('"*/Applications/j64-807/bin/libjqt.dylib*"
glcmds > i *i i' cd (; #))"1
glcmds_jglc_=: chkgl2@:('"*/Applications/j64-807/bin/libjqt.dylib*"
glc_cmds > i *i i' cd (; #))"1
*/Applications/j64-807/bin/libjqt.dylib*
…is an alias of:
/Applications/j64-807/bin/libjqt.1.7.9.dylib (dated 22/Sep/18, 22:51)
…which looks as if it lends the trailing figures of its filename to the Qt
IDE: line of JVERSION.
I've tried these alternative dylibs from earlier releases in its place:
/Applications/j64-807/bin/libjqt.1.5.3.dylib
/Applications/j64-807/bin/libjqt.1.7.7.dylib
re-directing to each one in turn all the aliases that point to [1.7.9].
But no joy: jqt won't even start. [1.7.9] is the only one that works for me.
But not well enough to support the Plot Package it seems - I don't know
enough about dylibs to conjecture why.
