hi Olivier

thanks for reporting this (I post it to pd-list as well as it might be 
of interest for others)

it seems you have several tcl installed together and the first one found 
is 8.4.
in a tclsh shell, what does the following line outputs?
`puts $tcl_version'

alas I don't have access to any osx machine right now but IIRC I got it 
working on a mac by installing active-tcl and manually installing tclsh 
that came alongside but I'm not 100% sure.

maybe some other osx users can give you more help ?

in any case good luck,
_y
