hi list,
macbook osx 10.5.8 vanilla 47.1
cannot download externals:
syntax error in expression "True": variable references require preceding $ syntax error in expression "True": variable references require preceding $ ("for" test expression) while compiling "for {set i 0} {True} {incr i} { set tmpfile "${p}${fs}dekentmp.${i}" if {![file exists $tmpfile]} { break ..."

(command bound to event)
what could be wrong?

i could circumvent this problem by downloading the externals with deken on another machine( Windows 10). still wondering why this error with deken; the macbook/osx version already too old? Pd works alright.

most likely the Tcl/Tk version is too old. which version do you run (and which arch?)
you can find out by running the following in the tclprompt¹: ::pdwindow::post "tcl:$tcl_version tk:$tk_version"

¹ the tclprompt has been removed from Pd-0.47, but you can download it via deken :-)
afaict, Pd-0.47.app uses the OSX-bundled version of Tcl/Tk; if this is also true for Pd-0.46, you could use that to run the test as well (iirc Pd-0.46 still has the tclprompt)
