Hi.. When using tk 8.6 global preferences do not open any more. It complains a packing problem. The attached patch fixes it. It is backward compatible to at least tk 8.4. Changelog: 2012-03-19 Roland Schwingel * library/globalpref.itb (_build_win): Remove unneeded debug call. Fix packing of OK/Apply/Cancel buttons for newer tk versions. Small reformatting. Any comments? Is this ok? This is the last patch for today and finishes my patch series for gdbtk for now. Next I will (most likely) cover libgui. Roland
