I have withdrawn Mac TUI 1.8.2.

After quite a lot of work I tracked down what is wrong, but have not  
yet identified a solution. So I don't know when I can release a new  
version.

P.S. the details: the new strip charts are somehow causing matplotlib  
to look for files outside of the bundled application. This succeeds if  
one has Python and matplotlib installed so I didn't see it at first.  
This was very unexpected because I have been bundling matplotlib in  
TUI for years without seeing this. It turns out I was just lucky --  
the existing graphs were simple enough not to expose the problem.

If worst comes to worst I can release a version without the strip  
charts (so one can stop Agile exposures) and make the strip charts an  
optional install, but I hope it does not come to that.
