I will file a bug report on your behalf. In the meantime, just catch
SEL_COMMAND instead. Also, I'm pretty sure that you need to fix your
call to FXComboBox.new. The third argument should be a reference to
the target (an FXObject instance). In your case, it should probably
just be nil:

    @cb = FXComboBox.new(self, 21, nil, 0,
             COMBOBOX_STATIC|FRAME_SUNKEN|FRAME_THICK|LAYOUT_RIGHT) {
      ...
    }

Also, as fascinating as this must be for the readers of ruby-talk, you
might want to consider posting FXRuby-specific stuff like this to the
fxruby-users mailing list instead.

Hope this helps,
