Which one do you talk about? There are some kinds of Ruby/Tk samples
and Tcl/Tk extensions.

I'm sorry but I'm not a Visual Basic user. Please show me a sample
code (and its effects) that you are imaging.

Ruby/Tk depends on Tcl/Tk libraries linked to the tcltklib extension. 
Do you say that Tcl/Tk's grid geometry manager is not enough? 
If so, you'll have to create a wrapper of Tcl/Tk's geometry managers. 
Or you can try to use Tcl/Tk extensions (e.g. TkTable) on Ruby/Tk.
