To Pd dev -
Several of my students have windows 7, on which the TCL line "package require registry" seems to fail (not able to find or load the file tclreg12.dll). I put a report on Sourceforge:

Woed any of you have ready access to a windows 7 mchine to see if you can replicate this? I don't have one and it might be a while before I can get hold of one.
I can confirm this problem. Here is what I get in the Pd-window:
--- (Tcl) UNHANDLED ERROR: couldn't load library "C:/Program Files (x86)/pd/lib/tcl8.5/reg/tclreg12.dll": this library or a dependent library could not be found in library path while executing "load {C:/Program Files (x86)/pd/lib/tcl8.5/reg/tclreg12.dll} registry" ("package ifneeded registry 1.2.1" script) invoked from within "package require registry" (procedure "write_config_win" line 2) invoked from within "write_config_win $data $adomain $akey $arr " (procedure "write_config" line 4) invoked from within "write_config $::recentfiles_list $::recentfiles_domain $::recentfiles_key true" (procedure "::pd_guiprefs::write_recentfiles" line 2) invoked from within "::pd_guiprefs::write_recentfiles " (procedure "::pd_menus::update_recentfiles_on_menu" line 24) invoked from within "::pd_menus::update_recentfiles_on_menu $menubar.file $write" (procedure "::pd_menus::update_recentfiles_menu" line 5) invoked from within "::pd_menus::update_recentfiles_menu" (procedure "::pd_guiprefs::update_recentfiles" line 8) invoked from within "::pd_guiprefs::update_recentfiles $filename" (procedure "pdtk_canvas_saveas" line 23) invoked from within "pdtk_canvas_saveas .x1cc53b0 {Untitled-1} {C:/Program Files (x86)/pd/bin}" ("uplevel" body line 1) invoked from within "uplevel #0 $cmd_from_pd"saved to: //filer/home$/rhaefeli/Desktop/blabla.pd ---
This on Windows 7 Enterprise SP1 with Pd-0.43.1.
I didn't have time to 'play' with the problem. If there is anything specific I can test, please let me know.
