The updated fldigi-3.22.36.dmg works fine, but there are two items OS X users need to be careful with that were introduced by the new fltk libraries.  When saving files, like macros, logbooks, ADIF Exports etc., the file extension is not displayed with the filename in the Save As box; however, when you click on Save, the saved file is saved with the correct extension. The second item is the new version saves files to the last folder used so you need to check the dialog box to be sure you are saving the file to the correct folder.

Dave W1HKJ, spent a great deal of time fine tuning fldigi to work with the new fltk libraries and his effort is appreciated. The updated fldigi-3.21.36 version, including the new <WX> macro, works great under OS X 10.7.2. Try it, you will like it.
