Right, I have them bookmarked now.  Will check them out later.

I am impressed with the ease and speed of development in ruby.  It has
taken about 12 days to to learn the basics and rewrite a user interface

The only outstanding problem is how to get BLT to work (for xy plots) but
those websites above may have some answers.
