Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: pd-extended Group: v0.42
Status: Closed
Resolution: Fixed Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Martin Peach (mrpeach) Assigned to: Hans-Christoph Steiner (eighthave) Summary: WinXp Pd.0.42.5 doesn't work
Initial Comment: http://autobuild.puredata.info/auto-build/2009-07-10/Pd-0.42.5-extended-2009... results in a Pd that exits before any windows or messages appear. All earlier versions of Pd.0.42.5-extended for WinXp that I tried do the same. http://autobuild.puredata.info/auto-build/2009-05-23/Pd-0.41.4-extended-rc3-... works fine. Somewhere in between it broke.

Message: Yeah, I am sure there is some work needed to get things working properly with Tcl/Tk 8.5, like with GNU/Linux. But since the original bug is fixed, and since I like closing bugs, I'm going to close this one.
Anyone up for checking out the 8.5 issues on Windows? The benefit on 8.5 are worth it, things like faster graphics anti-aliasing, etc.

Message: Yes it works now, but the font is tiny, about 8 point. Users will need to wear glasses ;(

Message: One thing to try is this version, it still uses Tcl/Tk 8.4

I think the bug is pretty simple, I ran pd.com in cmd.exe and got this:
F:\WINDOWS\system32> cd "\Program Files\pd\bin" F:\Program Files\pd\bin>pd.com spawnl: No such file or directory F:\Program Files\pd\bin\wish84.exe: couldn't load TCL
This should be fixed in this commit, please test and let me know: http://pure-data.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pure-data?view=rev&revision=...
