hi hc

Pd-0.38.4-extended-RC8 works fine! the following command opens pd / 
wish shell and my test patch.

/Applications/Pd-0.38.4-extended-RC8.app/Contents/Resources/bin/pd 
-open /Users/pd/Desktop/test.pd


the following command on Pd-0.39.2-extended-test1 opens pd / wish shell 
but _not_ my patch :-(

/Applications/Pd-0.39.2-extended-test1.app/Contents/Resources/bin/pd 
-open /Users/pd/Desktop/test.pd


millers pd 0.39-2 works here too and there is no wish shell icon when 
opening with a command file (if that makes any difference).

(OSX 10.3.9)
