hi all,

is it only my machine, or does pd somehow get into a bad state if i enter a '{' character to a message box?

after entering a {, pd doesn't react any more ... reproduced on 0.38-4 and devel_0_39 ...

keeps reacting here:

.x7d64e0 key 1 123 1; {: dropped

of course, theres no reason it needs to be dropped if the TK was written correctly..

cheers ... tim

i just encountered this behaviour too: pd doesn't really hang or get in a bad state, it is just tcl that waits for the bracket to be closed.

create an object-box and type "{" type some characters (nothing will be displayed) type "}"

if you do several "{"s, then you will have to close all of them before you get back to "responding"

would be good, if that could be fixed...
