So I have built a Pd.app using TclTk 8.4.9, which includes all of Jamie's super handy graphics fixes. It works fine if I use pd from the command line, i.e. the old way. But whenever I run the Pd.app, I get this:
hans@sla:mac-stuff > Pd-0.38-4_TclTk-8.4.9.app/Contents/MacOS/Pd alloc: invalid block: 0xa08fc9c: a 80 0
Abort
It seems to be the Tcl version of a kernel panic. Any ideas as to how to troubleshoot this? Or even better, what this error message means in particular? This seems to affect TclTk 8.4.5 thru 8.4.9. 8.4.4 works fine.
I really want to get the newer TclTk working because it is sooo much nicer: faster, many bug fixes, looks better.
...hmm: I guess the first question is where did you get the tcltk 8.4.9, or did you build it from the 8.4 cvs? I ask this because I've had no problems with tot (8.5) or tot (8.4) cvs, but then I haven't been building apps :-) So at least we know it isn't a fatal conflict between 0.38-4 and 8.4.9...
