[mcstas-users] two problems with 2.0RC2

[Evgeny Moskvin]

Dear gentlemen,

I've installed 2.0 version on my mac 10.6.8. Everything seems to be ok except few things:

- the code highlighter doesn't work, it says:

"Starting Tk::CodeText based editor failed. Using simpler McStas 1.7 style editor"

I've reinstalled Tk library from the package you provided, but nothing changes. What would be the problem?

- some of my old files don't run on the new version (not surprise). I used "migrate" scripts provided with new version, but when I start the old version via command /usr/local/bin/McStas-1.12c/mcgui it starts the old gui version (with code highlighter), but in the log window it writes the following:

"mcstas-2.0RC2 version 2.0RC2 (Dec. 02, 2012)

  Define /Users/emoskvin/.mcstas/hosts

  or use option --machines=<file>

which belong (I believe) to the new engine, and it doesn't compile my old files either. What would be the workaround for this?

Best regards, Evgeny.
