Hi Ruby folk I have written an applet using Ruby and the GNOME/GTK bindings, which makes all my regularly-used SSH connections available from a menu in the GNOME panel. There’s a page with screenshots here: [SSHMenu](http://www.mclean.net.nz/ruby/sshmenu/) and you can download the code (tarball or debian packages) from here: [SSHMenu](http://www.mclean.net.nz/ruby/sshmenu/#download) This is my first Ruby project so if you’re an experienced Ruby coder and find something odd in my code then I’d appreciate any feedback.

I have never done any internationalisation, so I’m looking for pointers on how to do it. Is there a Ruby way? Is there a GTK/GNOME way? Where should I start reading? Regards Grant * * * Take Surveys.
