brief: foxGUIb is an interactive gui builder for fxruby. this release  
brings compatibility with the newest version of fxruby and a new event  
editor.

details: foxGUIb version 0.5.0 works with FXRuby versions 1.4.x  
This release brings you an event editor which enables writing behaviour  
of your interfaces within foxguib. (see “View” menu)  
The codegenerator incorporates the event handling code in the generated  
class. runtime evaluation and testing is not inlcuded in this version.  
The event editor “knows” which events are documented in the fxruby api  
reference docs and can display the documentation for each event.  
The interface has been polished and looks more professional now.  
Some major bugs have been fixed. (see changelog)

Mike Parr joined the project and is currently writing serious  
documentation for foxGUIb. The docu will be included in the package in  
future versions.

This release comes to you thanks to all who encouraged me to continue  
on foxGUIb on the fxruby-users mailing list!!

Enjoy it,

foxguib-0.5.1-hotfix fixes the event editor crash and the broken event  
handler example.  
other than that it seems to be quite stable. sorry for the  
inconveniance.
