hello,

...well, I've been putting off a 10.2 posting until I had some things 
that I really couldn't get around, and the day has come!

...I was working on a pix_film-based video mixing app using a 
development version of GEM, and came to a point where I wanted to add 
the midi input/control...unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work.  I'm 
using a m-audio usb 1x1 with the 3.0 drivers, and it works with MIDI 
monitor 1.13, but pd doesn't seem to recognize anything!

...also, has anyone noticed any tcl/tk weirdness under 10.2?  I'm 
getting stalls all over the place, for instance opening a patch hangs 
until you move the cursor...actually, cursor movement seems necessary 
for any pd interface update...seems I've got TCL/TK 8.4a4, which is 
the latest I've seen around (with an installer, that is; is there a 
more current/stable cvs somewhere?)

...on the upside, I solved a problem or two I was having with some of 
GEM, and pix_film's are much faster now!  Seems to've broken 
pix_movie, but probably not for long...also, this change makes it 
easier to do some of the other stuff I wanted to address before the 
next release...

help!
jamie
