Subject: Re: WxRuby or FxRuby

Hello Jens,

JR> I'm new to Ruby and now searching for the best GUI toolkit to start with.
JR> After testing different ones with little "Hello world" samples, I have
JR> two favorites: FxRuby and WxRuby.
JR> I'd like to here some experiences or tips from you, why one of the
JR> mentioned toolkits could be the better decision for me.

Take FXRuby when you are satisfied with the offered widgets (for
example no html) and you don't need printing/macosx support/unicode.

Otherwise use WxRuby, even if it seems to be a little bit more
instable. Especially when you feed bad parameters it crashes a lot.
