I'm happy to keep using 8.5.19 on my Pd builds as long as I can (eventually Apple will do something that will break binary compatibility; we can count on them for that; but hopefully not for a while). But at the same time, unless you're trying to make a version of Pd that can run on OSX 10.6, you should follow Dan's suggestion and use a newer version of Tcl/Tk.
(And if you _do_ care about running on 10.6, perhaps that's because you know someone who has a 10.6 machine, and then I'd suggest you compile it on that one instead of a 10.14 one.) Meanwhile I'm happy to send my compiled Wish around - I've already sent it to Dan so that he can make it easy to get. cheers Miller On Mon, May 27, 2019 at 06:23:35PM +0200, Dan Wilcox wrote: > (resending with correct subject line) > > I can confirm that it's an issue with Tk 8.5 built on macOS 10.14.
