Please google for this. I have seen four discussions about this in the  
last month, so there are recent relevant hits.

I’ve used Tk and Fox ([http://www.fox-toolkit.org/](http://www.fox-toolkit.org/)), both of which are  
very good and run on both windows and Linux. But of late I have  
switched to RubyGtk2  
([http://ruby-gnome2.sourceforge.jp/hiki.cgi?Ruby%2FGTK](http://ruby-gnome2.sourceforge.jp/hiki.cgi?Ruby%2FGTK)) which I like  
even better than the other two.

There are other GUI systems, however. Check out the new Ruby Way book  
for intro examples.
