Update-- I've got a working Pd-l2ork, tkpath based App running on OSX. (No ppc support, unfortunately.) Audio is running.
Minefields:
- I cannot for the life of me figure out how to build tkpath using the
Tcl/tk Frameworks (Carbon-based) inside Pd-l2ork.app instead of the system ones. (Tried both Xcode and command line tools). Anybody have hints for that?
- I can't figure out how to build the externals in "extra". If I do
"make" the linker doesn't find any of the m_pd.h functions, even if I do the ugly hack of copying m_pd.h to the directory.
- I'm abusing my function for returning the executable path in order
to get Pd to look for doc/ and extra/ inside the App (in addition to the usual places on the system). Is there a trick to this?
- key presses/releases sometimes get stuck in one state or the other.
I think there's some simple tcl/tk hack for ignoring autokeys that may remedy this, but I'm not sure yet.
Best, Jonathan

Hello, I'm hoping some MacOSX gurus can help me traverse this mine-field.
What I'm trying to do: Port Pd-l2ork (quick-and-dirty) to MacOSX in the form of a Pd-l2ork.app
Minefields:
- Pd-l2ork uses tkpath, which is built to work with Carbon and not Cocoa. So I
must use tcl/tk Framework that uses Carbon instead of Cocoa. That should be ok because Pd-extended.app is currently set up to use Carbon.
- Pd-l2ork uses the old pd.tk framework instead of the newer stuff from the gui-rewrite
What I've done so far:
- updated the configure file successfully
- made a workaround for statbuf from stat.h not existing on OSX (in s_main.c)
- made a workaround for RTLD not existing after ./configure and trying to make (s_loader.c)
- successfully compiled Pd-l2ork
- checked that tkpath actually works on OSX. It seems to work, using tcl/tk w/Carbon
instead of Cocoa.
- used otool and install_name_tool to change libPdTcl.dylib libraries to point at the
App's Framework directory instead of system directories
- changed AppMain.tcl to launch pd.tk instead of pd-gui (which it does successfully)
What crashes so far:
- inside pd.tk, I'm trying to do this: load $pd_guidir/bin/libPdTcl.dylib
It finds the dylib fine but then it crashes, with the crash report referencing the first line of the following function of t_tkcmd.c in the backtrace:
int Pdtcl_Init(Tcl_Interp *interp) { const char *argv = Tcl_GetVar(interp, "argv", 0);
Any ideas where to begin to debug this? Is there some code I can add to Pdtcl_Init to print out some info I can use to tell where it's going wrong?
I put the full error log here: http://pastebin.com/duHdRrsY
Any suggestions appreciated.
