[PD-dev] Tcl/Tk 8.5.0 RC 2 available

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

Has anyone tried building Pd against Tcl/Tk 8.5 on the Mac?  It's  
looking almost done, so it seems we should try it to see if we find  
any specific bugs with Pd.  It should be quite a bit faster since  
they did a lot of work on updating the GUI stuff.
