I somewhat agree but > But the Webinterface idea is not a bad one per se. I completely agree on this. I think the functionality of the www + js + css is very similar to the "traditional" GUI world. To find the "best" traditional GUI toolkit without any further criterias is just asking for disagreement. For me I would answer that I am still looking for it ;) but I am very happy with ruby-gtk, especially because of the wiki. (For some reason, I am really lost without documentation, and ruby-qt does not really have a wiki AFAIK.) FXRuby has Lyle which is a super + but I think it also has no wiki. Tk is a bit old IMO now, and wxruby sounds nice in theory but it used to have a little problems in the past so i gave up quite on it (since ruby-gtk and ruby-qt work for me already) What I personally miss most is CSS in the GUI worlds. Especially the ease of modifying looks in CSS. This sucks in GTK. I really hate that part ... :( CSS with all its minor flaws it may have, really made customizing trivial (never mind that you can make it complex, but the basic principle is super easy and works super nice). -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
