Hi Adam
I tried your python enabled nightly in the DEBUG folder.
Lots of my problems have been cleaned up by your nightly - the'
KiCad->About' works without an Alert box popping up - it looks pretty
clean. I tried some of the clicks that gave me problems before and it
looks pretty solid.
Thanks much.
Application: kicad
Version: (2015-03-15 BZR 5517)-product Release build
wxWidgets: Version 3.0.2 (debug,UTF-8,compiler with C++ ABI 1002,GCC
4.2.1,STL containers,compatible with 2.8)
Platform: Mac OS X (Darwin 14.1.0 x86_64), 64 bit, Little endian, wxMac
Boost version: 1.54.0
USE_WX_GRAPHICS_CONTEXT=OFF
USE_WX_OVERLAY=ON
KICAD_SCRIPTING=ON
KICAD_SCRIPTING_MODULES=ON
KICAD_SCRIPTING_WXPYTHON=ON
USE_FP_LIB_TABLE=HARD_CODED_ON
BUILD_GITHUB_PLUGIN=ON
KICAD_USE_WEBKIT=OFF
The only thing that looks different from my builds is the use of Boost
version 1.54.0 instead of my 1.57.0
I think my 1.57.0 was massaged slightly by one of my builds in the past
- perhaps it has problems.
The newPCB->Tools->Scripting Console does pop up, but as noted by others
before, as soon as you type the 'e' in help - things go wrong. This is
fine - a nightly build (particularly in the DEBUG folder) is there to
show the latest stuff and what needs to be done.
It would be good to also have an OSX nightly incorporating whatever is
available for panning support too. Since your nightlies are for OSX
only, progress on panning for OSX might shine a light on the problems
for other platforms.
I had a glimmer of success a couple of weeks ago when I did a merge of
Garth's trackpad branch - but this was masked by my other difficulties
(perhaps my Boost 1.57.0 ??).
Are your nightly build scripts available? I could try again with Garth's
files.
Thanks again

Just as an aside, last night's build failed, for the first time in a
while--but the diff pairs should still work fine.

The differential pairs and length tuning stuff do not depend on python
scripting as far as I know and should be available in the latest
nightlies.
