[PD] Can't run pd in OSX

[lists.puredata.info at cefn.com]

The trick to fix this seems to be to run the installer for TclTkAqua  
as described at http://puredata.info/docs/developer/darwin

It says...

Download: TclTkAquaStandalone-8.4.9.dmg and TclTkAqua-8.4.9.dmg.  
Install TclTk8.4.9 frameworks with the installer package in  
TclTkAqua-8.4.9.dmg. Move TclTkAquaStandalone-8.4.9.dmg to packages/ 
darwin_app, the Makefile looks for it there.

However, this is followed by a slightly ambiguous guidance on that  
page where it says

If you are running Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger, this is not technically  
necessary since Tcl/Tk 8.4.7 is included. But there are some  
advantages to running the newer versions of Tcl/Tk

Initially I took 'not technically necessary'  to mean that it would  
work without installing TclTkAqua.

However I think it might mean that no effort has been made to take  
advantage of the version which is incorporated, and the installation  
of the later version is both recommended and required by the  
installation routine.

Some minimal notes on my experience of the same installation process  
are at http://cefn.com/curiosity/?page_id=147 I succeeded in the end.
