dear (FX)Ruby hackers,

i am proud to be able to announce the release of foxGUIb 0.6.  
check out the home page at [http://fox-tool.rubyforge.org](http://fox-tool.rubyforge.org) for details.

there is also a small surprise for you which will be announced  
tomorrow by a friend of mine 😉

== What is foxGUIb? ==  
foxGUIb is a GUI creator and code generator for FXRuby.

== Whom is foxGUIb for? ==  
\* FXRuby newbies who want to experiment with the widgets and  
layouts.  
\* FXRuby experts who want to prototype their GUI components rapidly.  
\* … ok, lets say everyone who wants to create a GUI with FXRuby 😉

== What has changed? (since v0.5.1) ==  
\* a lot of annoying little bugs are fixed in this release  
\* FX.rb has been renamed to libGUIb14.rb and encapsulated in its  
own package ‘libGUIb’ which comes with an installation routine.  
\* new supported widgets: FX::MenuRadio and FX::MenuCheck  
\* the FX::RadioMutex widget allows to create groups of mutually  
exclusive  
RadioButtons without extending the generated sources by hand.  
\* FX::MenuPane has mutual exclusive influence on FX::MenuRadios

cheers,  
– henon

It seems there is a bug.

When I run “ruby foxGUIb.rb”, I got this:

$ ruby foxGUIb.rb  
/usr/lib/ruby/site\_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom\_require.rb:21:in  
`require__': ./gui/ mainwin.rb:57: syntax error (SyntaxError) "Rubyforge: http://rubyforge.org/projects/fox-tool/", ^ ./gui/mainwin.rb:57: syntax error ./gui/mainwin.rb:59: syntax error ./gui/mainwin.rb:60: syntax error ./gui/mainwin.rb:61: syntax error from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygem s/custom_require.rb:21:in`require’  
from foxGUIb.rb:22

I took a look at mainwin.rb, and found a comma is ommitted at line 56.

Best regards,

uncutstone
