Thanks so much M. Neupert! This was perfect. I have PD running in OS X
in multiple user accounts.
I still have a few questions that I want to resolve over time. Is there
a reason why pure data does not work with older versions of TclTk? Has
PD been optimized specifically for the tcltk 8.5 install? I still would
like to know why there are 0.36 extended installers out there that do not
work. Would they work properly now that I have the right version of
TclTk?
