i just wanted to share some experience i made trying to compile pd

- the result was a binary that would start but was useless -- it
wouldn't open any new window.
...this is because TclTkAqua-8.4.10.dmg is only for ppc, and not
"universal", so pd would start, but then likely had problems with
tk and rosetta trying to put up the gui...
- miller puckette's version 0.40 compiles and runs on my computer.
...this is because your computer has an x86 compiled Tcl/Tk...
...I still haven't gotten an intel mac, but I'm seeing alot of
people "barking up the wrong tree" when trying to wedge pd and such
from ppc to x86 on the mac...newer versions of tcl/tk haven't been
widely distributed: the only place producing x86 distros of tcl/tk
that I currently know of is http://www.activestate.com , but they
aren't producing universal binaries or embedded versions, meaning
we're gonna have to do more work to get the pd-extended thing
working (of course!)...
Good to see you on the list!
What's the deal with the ActiveTcl package, do you know anything
about it? Is tcltkaqua.sf.net defunct?

Looking at things from a more basic level, you can come up with a
more direct solution... It may sound small in theory, but it in
practice, it can change entire economies. - Amy Smith
