Thanks  hc. No luck.

Crash report says:

Path: /Applications/Utilities/Wish Shell.app/Contents/MacOS/Wish Shell
Version: 8.5.7 (8.5.7)
Code Type: X86 (Native)
Parent Process: pd [369]

The file in the path is a link to /Library/Frameworks/Tk.framework/ Resources/Wish.app

testing wish:

ian$ wish
% info patchlevel
8.4.7

ian$ /System/Library/Frameworks/Tk.framework/Resources/Wish*Shell.app/ Contents/MacOS/Wish*
% info patchlevel
8.4.7

ian$ /Library/Frameworks/Tk.framework/Resources/Wish.app/Contents/ MacOS/wish
% info patchlevel
8.5.7


Seems like I have two versions of Tcl/Tk installed. But the newer one is that one that crashes.

You might need to install a Tcl/Tk Wish Shell.app in order to run it from the command line. You can use the built-in Wish, but its quite old. Here's how in Terminal:

cd /Applications
ln -s /System/Library/Frameworks/Tk.framework/Resources/Wish\ Shell.app Wish.app

Thanks Luke. In fact this is what I tried first of all. On MacOSX 10.5.5 (intel) with Pd-0.40.3-extended when launched from command line wish shell quits. On 10.4.11 (power PC) with Pd-0.40.3- extended it doesn't manage to find wish. This led me to assume that building from source might fix these issues. If I can't overcome these difficulties I think the best course of action is , as you suggest, to use the "startup flags" box, and launch the patch from "login items" in the MacOSX system prefs,

best,

(and, by the way, you can still run Pd from a shell script by (if Pd
is Pd-extended.app) running
"/Applications/Pd-extended.app/Contents/Resources/bin/pd" - everything else will work as usual. Finally, you can also, I think, add items to the "startup flags:" box in "Preferences>Startup..." or use a ~/.pdrc
file (which is just the flags you want to pass, one flag per line))

Best

I'm fairly new to pd but I have been building from source on Macosx and linux for a few years. Usually I can work it out. This time I'm really
stuck.
