Error when launching DiffMerge

Post by tigerwolf » Sun Dec 29, 2013 8:38 pm

I am getting this error from Tower when launching diffmerge:

(Tower: http://www.git-tower.com/)

(this is on OSX 10.9.1)

Code: Select all

An error occurred while launching DiffMerge.

2013-12-30 13:02:56.843 DiffMerge[38656:507] CoreText performance note: Client called CTFontCreateWithName() using name ".Lucida Grande UI" and got font with PostScript name ".LucidaGrandeUI". For best performance, only use PostScript names when calling this API.

Not sure if this is a tower thing or a diffmerge thing. I can contact Tower if its part of their launcing code.

It's coming from DiffMerge, but it's nothing to worry about.

DiffMerge is requesting a font for drawing text on the screen
and there's a library routine somewhere complaining that I'm using
a generic name for the font, rather than a PostScript name.
(which is doubly odd because those same library routines gave
me the generic name...)
