Web browser. Hmm. That reminds me of ActiveState's "Upcoming Releases",
which includes "Mozilla-based cross-platform, multi-language IDE: Komodo".
This is supposed to be released as open source--sometime very soon (i.e.
this year), IIRC. If it lives up to its initial press releases, this might
be what we want to use for RIDE (Ruby-IDE). This would require that someone
do the Mozilla XPCOM interface to support Ruby scripting of Mozilla, which
might be a worthwhile task in its own right. (ActiveState was reportedly
doing the XPCOM interface for Perl and Python.)

One can imagine RIDE (Ruby-Komodo) with its fingers in the RubyCentral
reference documentation would be pretty handy. (Although that could also
still be achieved in a much more klunky fashion using Ruby/Tk.)

If Mozilla turned out to be a decent cross-platform GUI framework, one could
do GUI apps with a self-extending RIDE, including the cosmic Ruby
hyper-browser itself.
