Seriously. I thought this would be simplier.

moment, so I have no clue what your problem is.Also, it might be a good idea to use search.yahoo.com to answer your
question? Or this new kid on the block, google.com?A general question gets a general answer, since more isn’t possible

So why do you answer if you are on maintenence.
And no searching friends don’t have any goooood answers. At least not on
first few pages.

You could look into the cross-platform GUI toolkits, for example wxRuby,
FxRuby, QT or GTK. Some of these should should provide abstractions for
