Hi: I don't know tk but I know Ruby and I have a simple gui based routine that I need to implement, possibly with ruby/tk. I need a tk program that will display a jpg image. I've looked around, but have not found a quick solution. Can some tk expert help me out. The application is simple and I would not be surprised if one already exists. I need it to display an image and then respond to a key press to execute a system command (i.e. rotate the image). Thanks for the help and sorry about the OT. ========================================================= Jim Freeze jim / freeze.org --------------------------------------------------------- No comment at this time. http://www.freeze.org =========================================================
