I am curious if anyone has used the ruby/python extension.  
[http://raa.ruby-lang.org/project/ruby-python/](http://raa.ruby-lang.org/project/ruby-python/)

Any issues in a multiplatform environment that I should be aware about  
handling? End-user install requirements? (ie. those platforms that  
generally don’t come with a compiler)

Untested example:  
Python “import something” → Ruby “require ‘something’”  
Python “Someclass.method()” → Ruby “Py::Someclass::method()”

Desired module: [http://pygame.org/](http://pygame.org/)

Won’t be easier to use Python directly?
