Lets hope so.

ok that didn't sound very convincing.

Well, I meant it to be convincing. The uncertainity came more from the fact that there might be bugs that we don't know how to fix.

If you send in a patch that fixes a bug it is very likely that it gets applied. This is the whole reasoning behind it. We want to avoid that fixes get lost, and the tracker reminds us what is still to be done and what has been fixed already.

I wanted to make a patch but I found out that u_main.tk doesn't seem to be the same in MAIN than in the OSX release .. is that possible or am I missing something ?

it's something very simple but it never gets into official tree ... the ALT key on OSX!!! I think many people would like to use it. It happens to be called "Option" instead of "Alt"

the fix is easy and harmless here's a quick diff of u_main.tk in Pd-0.38-0test7.app
