I second Ben's suggestion that at the least you should be using the File-
Quit menu, and not Wish's quit, if you are having troubles.
Ok, I get it now, there are two quit menus... I didn't get any weird errors with either one of them, I will have to just play with it...
Whenever I quit Pd, I get a status message of "FWADisposeMIDIStream result =" something. Do you? What does your something say? Is it different when you File->Quit Pd from when you kill Pd less gracefully?
Since I have tried the File->Quit, I get the same results on both (no crashes, yet though). I do also get the "FWAD..." message with a result of '1'.
I've also head of bus errors occurring due to poorly written MIDI device drivers for MacOSX. Check on your interface's manufacturer...
It is strange that in the past day or two, I have not been seeing many of these bus errors, maybe I have not been running as many apps at once. I will try to load it up, and see if there is a memory problem (which I don't think, because I don't have any other apps that crash, and 'pd' only crashes when it quits... [on the wrong menu item???])
