I got closer using the directions at the top of this page:

http://www.rubygarden.org/ruby?RubyTkOnOSX

Now I see:

$ ruby -r tk -e1
/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/tk/event.rb:397: undefined method  
`_define_attribute_aliases' for CallbackSubst:Class (NoMethodError)
         from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/tk.rb:804

Does that make sense to anyone?

Note that this step of the install:

cd /usr/local/bin
/Developer/Tools/Rez -t APPL Carbon.r -o ruby

failed:

$ /Developer/Tools/Rez -t APPL Carbon.r -o ruby
### /Developer/Tools/Rez - SysError -5000 during create of "ruby".
### /Developer/Tools/Rez - Fatal error trying to open the resource  
file "ruby" for writing.
Fatal Error!
### /Developer/Tools/Rez - Fatal Error, can't recover.
### /Developer/Tools/Rez - Since errors occurred, ruby's resource  
fork was not written.

I don't think that's the error I am seeing above though.

Any tips appreciated.
