I think it is not correct, but I could be wrong. X11 does come installed with 10.5/Leopard now.

Is this correct, that GEM now needs X11? Or is it still just PDP? If so, then I'll need to update the FLOSS Manual when 0.40 becomes the current stable Extended release.
Is there any reason for this, by the way? I always recommend GEM over PDP because a) it's better documented and b) it doesn't require extra software to be installed...

Hi hans & list,
I've seen that the installation of the X11 user package is necessary to run GEM under osx with the last 0.40-3 RC2 pd extended. I was wondering if it's possible to explicite that on the installers pages (http://at.or.at/hans/pd/installers.html and in the near future : http://puredata.info/downloads).
As pd-extended is very useful for beginners, I think it can be difficult for some of them to understand the printed error in the pd console.
Maybe a line as:
To run GEM and other graphical applications, you need to install X11 first.
would be a clear and simple indication. A link as this one http://www.simplehelp.net/2006/10/22/how-to-install-x11-in-os-x/
could also be helpy.
Greetings,
Nicolas
