I don't quite get what you mean with "word-size"

Anyway, i'm using 64bit versions of PD since 0.50. I double checked that 
my installed PD 0.53 is the 64-bit version. And W11 is 64 bit only anyway.

As for TOF, there were only 4 possibillities to download with deken for 
my platform (amd64-32).

versions 0.2.1 - 0.2.4. (the latest).
i tried all of them, no difference. everyone produces the reported error.

(i couldn't really find a 32bit version in the deken list)

Hasn't there been a new TK version lately ?

To me it really feels like a TK-related issue, it's written in red in 
the PD console.

BTW: [pmenu] works fine !
