Message: Since the GUI code in the first 0.43 SVN commit comes from the GUI rewrite, its pure Tcl, so no interps anymore. Has anyone tested the new pure Tcl code on 8.6?

Message: any luck with pd-devel? you don't even need tcl.h or tk.h to build it, it doesn't use the Tcl C API at all, so I think it should work fine on Tcl/Tk 8.6.

Message: this issue it is just about Pd code that directly accesses a Tcl_Interp field.

note that is perfectly legal in tcl 8.x to use Tcl_GetStringResult(interp) rather than interp->result.

actually, if one upgrades to Tcl 8.6, can't compile Pd anymore.

Message: since pd-vanilla 0.43 will most likely include the Tcl code from Pd-devel 0.41, I think it would be more likely that Tcl 8.6 support will happen with that code. Try testing pd-devel.

Also, since we are at it, Pd-vanilla doesn't work with Tcl/Tk 8.5 on Mac OS X. Pd doesn't even start, it just gives a "bus error". I think there are quite a few issues with the Tcl-C code in the Pd GUI, so I don't think its worth trying to fix it.
