hi hans,

first thx for the good work. i m currently preparing for a workshop next week and noticed 2 things when i tried out your new installer:

• the submenues in help or prefereances are only accessable

when i open first the 1. manual in help

Yeah, that's a known bug in the bug tracker.

• the gui seems to redraw very slowlu and only in "realtime"

when the mouse is moved over the canvas - is this meant as a cpu safer feature ? can i switch this behaviour ?

I haven't seen this. Can you file a bug report in the bug tracker? As
usual, the more info, the better.

Finally, I put together a newer Pd.app beta. Its based on the Pd.app
that Ben Bogart built for PixelTANGO since Miller and I haven't been
able to figure out the magic that he worked to get Pd to build
properly using Tcl/Tk 8.4.9. Tcl/Tk 8.4.9 brings lots of lovely
improvements, including Jamie's CoreGraphics updates.

Other notable addition:

• GUI objects work again (unauthorized, [envgen], etc.)
• [hid] and company are part of the build
• [comport] serial port object
• pmdp
• help files were renamed to conform to the standard (NAME-help.pd)

Notable omissions:

• flext-based externals (the Pd.app build hasn't been updated for

the new flext building)

• pdp... its still quite hard to compile, but a solution seems

near...

As always, there is lots left to do...
