Preventing TkRoot from resizing

Ruby
1

I have googled to no avail, so does anyone know how I would keep a
window created by TkRoot from resizing when a user drags the border?
Sorry if it’s obvious.

One of the great things about Ruby is how easy it is to peek behind the
curtain using ripl or irb like

C:\Users\Jon\Documents>ripl

RUBY_DESCRIPTION
=> “ruby 1.9.3dev (2011-09-17 revision 33290) [i386-mingw32]”

require ‘tk’
=> true

Tk.constants.sort
=> [:AUTO_PATH, :BinaryString, :Busy, :Button, :CallbackSubst, …

…and discover the methods on Tk.root like

Tk.root.methods.sort
=> [:!, :!=, :!~, :<=>, :==, :===, :=~, :Grid, :Pack, :Place, …

…or Tk.root instance variables

Tk.root.instance_variables.sort
=> [:@path]
