Hi,  could you be a little more precise and give the version number? (cause the 
"latest" version may well be one future version that you may not be aware of...)

Although I have no Mac, I feel a little concerned because I created this level. 
I may have a clue, as an error message given by your computer below...

Good idea!

... (continued from above) If the problem comes from here it may mean that an 
exotic character has been found and not recognized by Tiger. As 

1) I am French
2) I wrote this level under Windows (shame on me!)

it is quite possible that I put a wrong character somwhere, even without being 
aware of it.

To know if I am right into thinking that I was wrong, a more complete list of 
the levels that cause the crash could be useful I guess...

Only, I could not compile it last time (autogen says that "configure.ac:110: 
warning: macro `AM_PATH_SDL' not found in library"), but really it is a good 
way to have a better Enigma because this unstable version uses the new API 
which makes coding easier and debugging easier too...
