Hi, Ruby supports some interface to GTK, but from the FAQ it is unclear to which extent. Older documentation at rubygarden.org mentions that a port to GTK 2.0 is to be implemented. Fortunately Ruby is able to use the GTK-server package as well (http://www.gtk-server.org/). It runs with the preferred STDIN interface. The GTK-server provides almost unlimited access to graphical user interfaces using GTK. Due to the design of the GTK-server any GTK version can be used. Demoprograms with Ruby can be found at the examples section. Regards Peter
