It looks so nice on the Mac...! ;o) It's a pity it looks way less 21th Century here on Hardy...
Well, at least Carmen's peak-meters made it into a mainstream branch. (I didn't actually check that they are the same, maybe they aren't...)
If you dislike vanilla appearance of Pd on Linux as much as I do, please try the pd.tk file I sent out sometime last week on this list and report any bugs. Hans has pointed a few that affect other platforms (this one was designed to provide minimal changes while making GUI more 21st century and without affecting Windows or OSX, apart from the few reported bugs) but other than that it appears rock solid here. Bear in mind that it does require tcl/tk 8.5 with antialiasing enabled.
Best wishes,
Ico

I'm trying to try it... Downloaded http://lists.puredata.info/pipermail/pd-list/attachments/20090904/4c8114df/a... Now is there another way than putting it where my pd install is? Right now it doesn't seem to find pd. Thanks, Andras

You should rename that into pd.tk and then copy it into the Pds bin directory (e.g. /usr/lib/pd/bin/ or /usr/local/lib/pd/bin/). You should also back-up the old version of pd.tk that resides in those folders before overwriting it in case you end-up not liking this version.
Hope this helps!

I have no idea how much you dislike it, but I won't work on pd.tk anymore. If you read early 2004 pd-list archives, you'll find some of those hacks.

I got a message from the future... they said OSX and Vista don't look 21st century enough... they claimed to be living in the year 2015.

Sorry, bad edition of my email. I deleted a sentence while I was shuffling some others around.
I meant that I made some pd.tk hacks back in early 2004 and that you can find about them in the pd-list archives.
Now that I think of it, several of them involved a bit of C code as well. For example, I had added a console to the main window...
