The 'catch' is already in place in Pd 0.43 in pd_connect::pd_readsocket, and
that is indeed what is printing out the Tcl error dump that started this
discussion.
As for whether pd-gui stops working after an error or not, I think this is a
behavior of the Tcl interpreter, not Pd 0.43 or Pd 0.42. In both Pd 0.42 and
0.43, fatal errors stop the Tcl interpreter. Try sending a message with "{" in
it. In both Pd 0.42 and 0.43, the Tcl interpreter will print an error message
for non-fatal errors and then continue to execute the next commands.
About the bug report, that particular bug report shows a bug where Tcl commands
are being split in the middle of the line, causing incomplete commands to be
executed. The Tcl error dump that Cyrille posted in this thread is not the same
error at all. Cyrille's error shows a complete Tcl command, but the
".x235b3d0.c "canvas does not exist. So Cyrille's error is like the errors
that are triggered by the christchurch GOP that were fixed for 0.43-1test7.
