I am attempting to run ruby\lib\ruby\gems\1.8\gems\fxruby-1.6.12-mswin32\examples\raabrowser.rb But I am getting some sort of xml error. Tkis file is undocumented in the readme but I was hoping to (maybe) use it as the basis of my application. I am clueless what RAA means in this context. Wikipedia search finds * Ralph Appelbaum Associates * Recreation and Amusement Association, a system of brothels set up by the Japanese government for US occupation forces * Recreational Aviation Australia * Reductio ad absurdum * Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone system * Riksantikvarie?mbetet (National Heritage Board of Sweden) * Right atrial appendage * Royal Australian Artillery, a corps in the Australian Army * Royal Automobile Association * Ruby Application Archive * The Rural Alberta Advantage, a Canadian indie band * Rural Assistance Authority (New South Wales) but I''m pretty sure it is none of those. :-) So ... anyone know how to get raabrowser.rb to work and what it''s supposed to do?

Wikipedia search finds...<snip> It''s the Ruby Application Archive (http://raa.ruby-lang.org/). The RAA web site provides, or used to provide, a SOAP (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SOAP) interface. The raabrowser.rb example program uses this SOAP interface to query the RAA for information about the packages therein, and then presents the results in an FXTreeList. Hope this helps, Lyle

This is sort of the "official" list, although you''ll occasionally see FXRuby questions pop up on the foxgui-users and ruby-talk mailing lists (as well as other random programming forums).
