i just spent the last few hours trying this out. the install was
relatively painless. i was suprised at how easy it was to get gui code
up and running.

rubyscript2exe created the exe, but an end user would need gtk
installed. i wasn't able to figure out all the dll's what would  need
to be distributed with an app or even if that's possible...i'm
guessing that's why the gaim installer fires up the gtk installer :)

it would be nice if there was an 'allinone' gtk.dll that you could
distribute with ruby-gtk2 apps...

and debugging with arachnoruby worked as smoothly as i thought it would

i like it enough to stick with it...
