From: Erik Boling Date: 2007-10-08T04:41:20+09:00 Subject: Ruby TKentry So, i have been programming for about a month or so and i decided to try out a GUI for some of my programs. I just started using ruby tk. I found some tutroials, but there not very detailed. I have been fooling around with it a bit, but i cant get the TKentry class to work.Supposedly according to the tutorials, it is used for getting input, but i dont know how to store the data. heres an example: puts 'how old are you?' age = gets.chomp. for TK its: entry = TkEntry.new(root).pack # equivalent to gets *I'm guessing* but im not sure how to store the input..? also i have noticed things like sleep 3 don't work with TK? If any one knows any good tutorials or just has the answer to my questions that would be much appreciated ps, sorry if im using the wrong *wordage* for things, Im quite new to programming. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
