Subject: ruby-1.8.1/ext/tk/sample/demos-en/ : none works!

Hi,

[Solaris 8]

I tried running the scripts under ruby-1.8.1/ext/tk/sample/demos-en/
and none of them seem to work:

~/ruby-1.8.1/ext/tk/sample/demos-en> ruby filebox.rb 
filebox.rb:14: uninitialized constant TkToplevel (NameError)

So I edit filebox.rb and add 'require tk', and re-run:

/export/users/paul/local/lib/ruby/1.8/tk.rb:1623:in `__invoke':
unknown option "-positionWindow" (RuntimeError)
        from /export/users/paul/local/lib/ruby/1.8/tk.rb:1623:in
`_invoke'
        from /export/users/paul/local/lib/ruby/1.8/tk.rb:1027:in
`tk_call'
        from /export/users/paul/local/lib/ruby/1.8/tk.rb:3848:in
`configure'
        from /export/users/paul/local/lib/ruby/1.8/tk.rb:3783:in
`method_missing'
        from filebox.rb:18
        from filebox.rb:15:in `new'
        from filebox.rb:15:in `new'
        from filebox.rb:15

Has anyone got any of these demos to work??!!!  On a positive note, I
can get almost all of the scripts under ~/ruby-1.8.1/ext/tk/sample to
work fine.
