Fox can be very good.. I've read some docs on FXRuby site and shown that FreeRide is using it :) Wxruby can be good but for me documentation is the most important :) (and as you said there isn't a lot of docs for wxruby). Gtk for me is not good too, because my primary os is Windows. Regards Jacek -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
