and one more +1

(But only if it has a Ruby API and not a mere reflection of the C API
that the toolkit has itself. The way I drowned in a gtk tree in Ruby does
not contribute to world domination.)

That's not to say Tk isn't portable. It was even native look'n'feel on
windows when I peeked there (contrary to the ugly *nix stuff).

Hopefully I can leave http://arena.game-server.cc/ running without paying
much attention soon (it's ruby from the ground up) and continue working
on http://rvv.rubyforge.org/ so that might trick me into working on Wise
again. maybe. don't count on it.
