I wonder if I stop using perl and start using Ruby.
1-Can ruby programs create Guis much like C# and VB.NET?
2-Can ruby programs be turned into .exe files if needed?
3-Does Ruby support regexp like Perl does?
4-If Ruby as good as perl is when processing text?
5-Does ruby have anything like associative arrays?

Feedback needed
