Anything Carbon is dead, unless you're happy working with 10.6 and older.
I'm running Pd-extended and my Pd-l2ork port on 10.7.5.  Both link
to the Carbon system libraries.  Both run.
Considering that Apple has dropped support even for some older 64-bit Macs, I
think using Carbon is surely a dead end.

What is the relevance of what you've written and linked to?

When I have time to look at what's required to get tkpath to use
the updated tkMac headers found in newer versions of tcl/tk, I'll do it.
Meanwhile people will have a working version of Pd-l2ork on OSX
to play with.

An update to the Pd-l2ork port:
* figured out how to build tkpath against the Carbon stuff.  It runs fine now.
* got some basic libraries compiled and installed to ship with the app.
(zexy, hcs, cyclone, and a few others).
* currently working on an issue with the Shift key "sticking"-- that is, if I
do <Shift-RightArrow> to move an object by 10 pixels, when I release
Shift and then do <RightArrow> it continues moving the object by
10 pixels instead of 1 pixel.  Once I fix that it should be usable.

Best,
Jonathan

Minefields:
* I cannot for the life of me figure out how to build tkpath using the
Tcl/tk Frameworks (Carbon-based) inside Pd-l2ork.app instead of the
system ones. (Tried both Xcode and command line tools).  Anybody
have hints for that?
* I can't figure out how to build the externals in "extra".  If I do
"make" the linker doesn't find any of the m_pd.h functions, even if
I do the ugly hack of copying m_pd.h to the directory.
* I'm abusing my function for returning the executable path in order
to get Pd to look for doc/ and extra/ inside the App (in addition to
the usual places on the system).  Is there a trick to this?
* key presses/releases sometimes get stuck in one state or the other.
I think there's some simple tcl/tk hack for ignoring autokeys that may
remedy this, but I'm not sure yet.

Best,
Jonathan

Hello,
        I'm hoping some MacOSX gurus can help me traverse this mine-field.

What I'm trying to do:
Port Pd-l2ork (quick-and-dirty) to MacOSX in the form of a Pd-l2ork.app

Minefields:
* Pd-l2ork uses tkpath, which is built to work with Carbon and not Cocoa.
So I
must use tcl/tk Framework that uses Carbon instead of Cocoa.  That should be
ok because Pd-extended.app is currently set up to use Carbon.
* Pd-l2ork uses the old pd.tk framework instead of the newer stuff from the
gui-rewrite

What I've done so far:
* updated the configure file successfully
* made a workaround for statbuf from stat.h not existing on OSX (in s_main.c)
* made a workaround for RTLD not existing after ./configure and trying to
make (s_loader.c)
* successfully compiled Pd-l2ork
* checked that tkpath actually works on OSX.  It seems to work, using tcl/tk
w/Carbon
instead of Cocoa.
* used otool and install_name_tool to change libPdTcl.dylib libraries to
point at the
App's Framework directory instead of system directories
* changed AppMain.tcl to launch pd.tk instead of pd-gui (which it does
successfully)

What crashes so far:
* inside pd.tk, I'm trying to do this:
       load $pd_guidir/bin/libPdTcl.dylib
It finds the dylib fine but then it crashes, with the crash report
referencing the first line
of the following function of t_tkcmd.c in the backtrace:

int Pdtcl_Init(Tcl_Interp *interp)
{
       const char *argv = Tcl_GetVar(interp, "argv", 0);

***

Any ideas where to begin to debug this?  Is there some code I can add to
Pdtcl_Init to print out some info I can use to tell where it's going wrong?

I put the full error log here:
http://pastebin.com/duHdRrsY

Any suggestions appreciated.
