Hi Ann,
OS X 10.4 uses a new version of Perl which has some trouble with the Perl libraries that come bundled with Ifeffit.
The result seems to be that you have to build Perl/Tk for Perl 5.8.6. Rebuilding Perl/Tk is not too difficult, if you have the developer tools installed and have a passing familiarity with the unix-y parts of Darwin/OS X. The instructions at http://millenia.cars.aps.anl.gov/pipermail/ifeffit/2005-May/001771.html
should help. If you try this, please let us know how it goes.
Sorry for the trouble. I don't have Tiger installed (and won't for at least two months, as vpn software that I need is known to not work with Tiger) and so cannot make a binary installer for it.
Could someone who has successfully built the software for 10.4 update the relevant FAQ entry?
