dont know if its just me (i've defoma-add all the winfonts), but miller's version of PD has always showed up as screenfuls of empty white boxes on linux, i think it's due to configuring tk with --enable-xft..if i change the font to anything besids courier it works fine..so yes please thanks for the font menu tim!
