I just recently downloaded a binary for emacs on Windows.

ftp://ftp.mozart-oz.org/pub/mozart/extras/emacs-20.4.1.exe

(I'm not an emacs person, but 'mozart' apparently requires it)

Also excellent is the award-winning Note Tab (not Notepad) editor.
They have a lite version for free (still very good) at

http://www.notetab.com

I have used wxPython a little, and it is pretty neat, although still not
fully stable. But certainly nicer than Tcl/Tk on windows.

I also thought about wxRuby before, but I would not be a good candidate to
actually make it ;-)

I will help out, though, by sponsoring the domain and hosting a website for whoever 
wishes to work on making a wxRuby. Let me know if anyone else is interested.

I am also interested in seeing a version of ruby that does not need helper
programs such as cygwin etc.  What are the chances of that happening?
