You still need a good Perl/Tk reference to go with that. That certainly has its uses, but I think that only has a marginal connection the IDE issue. However, the fact that Tk is a standard part of the Ruby distribution *is* a major factor. (See below.) # Bizarre question, based on ignorance: to what extent can glade be made # to support both GUIs? Most widgets are pretty much the same from platform # to platform.... Good question, but the different property lists (names, valid values, etc.) would cause problems. By the way, there is a Tcl/Tk based editor available somewhere (apologies again for not having the info at hand) that could be used in the IDE (after conversion to Ruby/Tk, which might be a non-trivial task). So maybe we should just start with Ruby/Tk and do the best we can, and defer switching to some other GUI until after we see where the biggest problems in practice are, and until after we have exhausted the means of improving the current Ruby/Tk interface code (or whatever). We should be able to do at least as well as idle (Python's Tk-based IDE), which I've not experienced. Conrad Schneiker (This note is unofficial and subject to improvement without notice.)
