No, that would be great. Check out packages/darwin_app from the CVS to
get the files that build this. It still needs work, which I will do
over the next week or two.
It would be really awesome if we could get Pd to use the AppMain.tcl
setup working. The only that AFAIK that needs to happen for this to
work is for Pd to be launched by Wish Shell. Then we could use the
Tcl/Tk standalone Wish Shell package and Pd would truly be entirely
self-contained and would work where ever its located.
I don't know how much would this change would be since I only just
started looking into it. But I would happily continue or even pick up
the pace on my work with the packaging if you would do the Wish
Shell/AppMain.tcl launching Pd.

Cool,
Unless you object I'll attempt to roll the "pd.app" organization into my 0.38 Pd pre-release (was already intending to try to do this).

So I have gotten the rough version of the new MacOS X package working. Keep in mind that this is a test version, but it should be usable. The aim is to have everything needed to run Pd in a Pd.app, so that you
can just drag-n-drop to install. Plus, the long term goal is to make Pd behave like a normal MacOS X app, but there needs to be some biggish changes for that to happen.http://at.or.at/hans/pd/installers/
Lots of stuff has been added, including: iemlib pmpd toxy
There is some stuff I would like to add, but need some help from the respective developers:
flext (compile straight from CVS on MacOS X) Gem (compile from the command line) pdp (statically link for all deps) gridflow (help compiling)
So this Pd.app is all set for the AppMain.tcl way of building a Tcl/Tk MacOS X app. In order for that to work, Wish Shell has to launch Pd rather than Pd launching Wish Shell. I started playing around with trying to get that working but didn't get that far. Anyone else working on this or have some pointers?
