Hi, We have sample programs in sample/ directory. If you installed Ruby/GTK2 as gem, you will find samples in $GEM\_HOME/gems/gtk2-0.90.7/sample/. Some of samples aren’t Ruby 1.9 ready. We want to make all samples Ruby 1.9 ready. We want your help. Could you try all Ruby-GNOME2 (Ruby/GLib2, Ruby/GTK2 and so on) samples, fix not Ruby 1.9 ready samples and send a patch? (We don’t have a list of all not Ruby 1.9 ready samples. Sorry.) Here are main broken reasons: 1. not M17N ready Solution: add “# -_- coding: utf-8 -_-” at the top. 2. $LOAD\_PATH doesn’t have ‘.’ Solution: add “$LOAD\_PATH.unshift(’.’)”. We hope your help! ## Thanks, kou ---

I try to help with that in the coming months but personally I am still using Ruby 1.8.x so it will take me some time before I manage to migrate to Ruby 1.9.x successfully 🙂 (I had and still have many problems with the encoding changes in Ruby 1.9.x) Thanks. ---

Thanks for checking Ruby/GLib2 samples. Could someone fix the warning and error on Ruby 1.9? ## Thanks, kou ---

Hi. I have checked all the gtk-demo samples but the cairo ones. I will try to commit my changes (see diff file). Should I split them in 2 commits (main.rb and textview.rb). Does the syntax of Changelog is correct ? For the commit should I use this URL svn+ssh://removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid/svnroot/ruby-gnome2 or https protocole is enough ? ---

You don’t need to split them in 2 commits because both of them are fixes for Ruby 1.9. If changes aren’t relative, please split them in some commits. > Does the syntax of Changelog is correct ?
