Yes, major reasons to move to Tk 8.6.12 on macOS, least of which is that it already incorporates all the fixes the back ported patches address as well as supports a couple of things added to macOS 12. For a summary, see: https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/pull/1414

I might have something mislabeled, but I _think_ all the Pd builds I'm making are indeed based on Wish-8.6.10, with these 4 patches: tk8.6.10_helpmenu.patch tk8.6.10_keyfix.patch tk8.6.10_scrollbars.patch tk8.6.10_zombiewindows.patch OTOH, should I 'upgrade' to ish-8.6.12? If there/s no reason

I use the "official" JACK distribution installer from https://jackaudio.org/downloads/ and *not* JACK via Homebrew. I believe I've mentioned this in one or two of the "JACK doesn't work" threads on Github. My testing back then indicated that linking to JACK

I'm hoping to make this part of a major change that will have to introduce a new version of t_signal to hold extra info (overlap factor for sub-blocked windows; separate sample rate and number-of-samples-per-second; at least one additional dimension for multichannel signals and/or images; some

The main idea (trick) was to hold an parallel info about a signal which multichannel or not... to be upward compatible and add some multichannel natives object to collect and distribute. FWIW, after talking to Winfried about Pd-snake a while ago, I worked out a backwards compatible

okay, pursuant to this idea, i'm starting into working on this design overhaul and i'm considering routing the non-audio signals to all of the instruments in a slot at once. since there will only ever be audio coming from one instrument in a slot, there certainly won't be audio conflicts, but i am
