[PD-dev] no key commands in 0.37/MacOS X

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

The minor number is important, the behavoir changes quite a bit between 
the minor versions.  Here are my results from trying the different 8.4 
versions.  I also tried Adam's explicit bindings patch.

- 8.4.4: neither Ctrl nor Cmd worked for me.  Adam's patch did not 
change the behavoir.

- 8.4.2: only Ctrl works for me, but if I leave Pd running for a while, 
then Ctrl stops working.  I actually had to reboot to get Ctrl working 
again.  Adam's patch did not change the behavoir.

- 8.4.1: both Ctrl and Cmd work for me. (without Adam's patch).

I tested the various Tcl/Tk installs also with Cecilia, a Tcl frontend 
to csound.  Cecilia uses explicit bindings (IIRC) and it had similar 
behavoir.  So it looks like somethings going on with Tcl/Tk > 8.2.1.
