[PD-dev] Pd on OS X

[Adam Lindsay]

If you're running Jaguar and are experiencing a stalled graphical
interface, do make sure you're running the latest (8.4.1) Tcl/Tk. The
most recent builds at Sourceforge are nice looking (antialiased text...
which may not help performance). Mac OSX 10.2 introduced some issues with
older versions of Tcl/Tk which have subsequently been fixed.

Stalled audio input is another matter. I have an iMac with similar specs,
and it's tricky to get good performance.

Best of luck,
adam
