Hi, I am very, very new to programming and i started to learn ruby as a first language from the excellent book ''Learn to program by Chris Pine''. Now that I finished the book I would like to study a little bit about something that does not running in the command pompt, but has an interface like a game. Basicly I set out a little project for myself: I would like to display a 2D sqare on the screen and be able to move it around with the cursor buttons. The problem is that i have no idea about where to start as everything i wrote before was running in the shell. Do i need to add a GUI framework to the basic ruby installation to be able to do that like Green Shoes by _Why or do I have to use something like the GTK2? Also if you can, could you please recommend some study material on the subject, preferably books but if you know of any, some simple online tutorial would be good too. Thanks in advance for everyone who taken the time to answer this, Kind Regards, Loren -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

http://shoesrb.com/ You could of course use Shoes, Red Shoes, or Green Shoes. Have you seen the Pong game done in Shoes? http://vgoff.posterous.com/pong-in-purple-shoes shows the ending screen and the flash demo if you click on the pong link there. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
