Ok, so it seems there was some kind of
permissions
problem.  I reset
the permissions and zipped it with the native
zipper.

In windows, one thing I'm seeing
is that when you try to close a patch, it just
reappears in the top left corner of the screen.

Here's what's printed to the console:

Running pdtk_fixwindowmenu
Running pdtk_fixwindowmenu
::pd_bindings::window_configure .pdwindow
::pd_bindings::window_focusin .pdwindow
::pd_bindings::window_configure .xd78338
::pd_bindings::window_configure .xd78338
::pd_bindings::window_configure .xd78338
::pd_bindings::window_configure .pdwindow
::pd_bindings::window_focusin .xd78338

Ok, lots of work, including quite a bit on the Windows
front.  The
file is called the same thing for Windows, but its a new
file with a
bunch of changes:

For all of the platforms, you can stay up to date by
following the
'svn update' instructions in the above page.

Cool!

Thanks for testing and reporting bugs!

Do you have any examples of what can be done with the tcl window at the
bottom of the console?

You can run anything Tcl. try running "menu_message_dialog" or "console show". Look in pd/startup for examples of things to do with Tcl.

Here's a couple of things I see right off:

* The check mark for "Edit Mode" is too faint until you mouse over it.

on the todo list

* clicking the "Text Editor" gives the following error:
invalid command name "menu_texteditor"
invalid command name "menu_texteditor"
   while executing
"menu_texteditor $::focused_window"
   (menu invoke)

not implemented and perhaps unneeded

* "Preferences" give the following error:
invalid command name "menu_preferences_dialog"
invalid command name "menu_preferences_dialog"
   while executing
"menu_preferences_dialog"
   (menu invoke)

not implemented yet

* File->Message (ctrl-m) doesn't work

Fixed, 'svn up' and try again.

* If you try to close a window, it gets moved to the top left of the
screen.  (But it does close after going through the "Discard Changes"
dialog)

strange... noted

* The gui level meter for "IN" displays three bars when you turn on the
level meter and DSP.

That's the noise level of your sound input. Those meters need to be calibrated. They are currently pretty rough.

* The recent files in the "file" menu don't persist after you close Pd.

Yeah, its not stored yet, first we need to figure out a framework for storing things like that.

* "Audio settings..." and "MIDI settings..." don't work

Fixed, 'svn up' and try again.

* If you make a subpatch and choose "Parent window" from the "Window"
menu, the parent window is moved to the top left corner

noted.

* Help->About gives the following error:
can't read "pd_myversion": no such variable
can't read "pd_myversion": no such variable
   while executing
"regsub -all PD_VERSION $bigstring2 $pd_myversion bigstring3"
   (procedure "::pd_menucommands::menu_opentext" line 15)
   invoked from within
"::pd_menucommands::menu_opentext "$dirname/$basename""

not implemented yet, on the todo list

* Find only works the first time.

noted

* Help->Browser window is too narrow, and the text is too small

Fixed, 'svn up' and try again.

* (probably old, but I just noticed) When you choose an item from
the "Put" menu, it initially doesn't line up with the mouse pointer (click
on VU meter but don't move the mouse at all, and you'll see it).

Yeah, that's an old one, it uses the last known mouse position. That's handle in 'pd', so the C code.
