Re: [MACTCL] New OSX TCL User Compile Problem

[Jim I. <ji...@ap...>]

David,

It is better to get 8.4.1, and probably (given that we are still 
working on the code fairly actively) better to get it from cvs, rather 
than getting one of the made up tar files.  I think for 8.4.0 you have 
to rename tcl8.4 to tcl, ditto for tk, but I don't quite remember.  
Anyway, 8.4.1 has a number of bug-fixes for Mac OS X that you probably 
want...

If you are still having problems, send us the failure messages from the 
build and we might be able to help you.  Without that there isn't much 
we can do...

Jim
