Hi!

I use Python, but, I read, from time to time, the news of the Ruby  
cousin.

I had found (since only 2 hours) that KixForm can to do used by Python +  
PyWin32.

But, that must adapt easily to Ruby.

At the end of the message, a very small example (in Python)

It’s an Active-X, in one file (.DLL), and one help-file (.CHM)

It is limited, but simple
