You mean play from C++ or from Python? Or were there self-contained demos in
the tarball?

Is there a downloadable MS Windows FOX demo executable anywhere?

That would seem very handy. Have you got any FOX widgets accessible from
Ruby yet?

How do you and others think FOX compares to wxWindows? One drawback
(although not for me) seems to be lack of Mac support (which is claimed to
be not too difficult to do, but unlikely soon without a hardware donation).
