Hi List, Is there anyone who has experience with enlightenment and ruby? I would like to use ruby for a project that uses e17 libs for the gui. I found Tilman S.'s ruby-efl bindings and redact at [code-monkey.de](http://code-monkey.de), but the download link for redact is dead and I have been unable to compile some of the ruby-efl-bindings - they are from 2007 and I think they have come ‘out of sync’ by now. If anyone here is able to give some advice, the details are below. So – if any of you has a dusty, old copy of redact lying around, I’d be grateful if I could have a copy of it. Also, any advice for getting the ruby-efl bindings to work would be greatly appreciated! cheers, Siemen Ruby-efl details: I tried to compile the ruby-efl bindings against my current efl-checkout (39893 from [http://svn.enlightenment.org/svn/e/trunk/](http://svn.enlightenment.org/svn/e/trunk/). Ruby-edje and ruby-evas build fine. Ruby-ecore fails to compile because some symbols in the header files cannot be resolved. I have grep’ed in the e17 include dir (/opt/e17/include in my case) and they are indeed not there. However, similar looking symbols exist. It looks like they have been renamed / refactored. Ruby-esmart does not build either for two reasons. First, the rakefile somehow does not pass the -cflags and -libs that it got from pkg-config to cc. I got around that by compiling manually. Secondly, the referred include file ‘Esmart/Esmart\_File\_Dialog.h’ does not exist.
