[Tikzdevice-bugs] newbie with a simple question

[הצעיר ירמיהו ס"ט]

Hello Cameron:

Thank you for the answer. Because I only have Tiger (OS X 10.4.11), I could
not install beyond 2.10.1. Could it be why only 0.4.8 of tikzDevice gets in
there...

I really do wish that it would work out of the box.

Again my congratulations on making something that is obviously so useful...
I just wish I could use it too.

Melvyn
