Thanks for all the replies.

Man, have I been having a tough time with ruby-opengl. The rakefile 
simply aborts with the following error:

--------------------------------

--------------------------------

I have XCode installed, so cc and gcc should run pefectly. If anyone 
does a lot of C, do the above errors ring a bell?

Do Yoshi's bindings work in Mac OSX, because I think I will try those 
next.
