There''s also a pdf version http://www.pressure.to/wxruby/wxruby.pdf [3MB, 751 pages!] and a tarball http://www.pressure.to/wxruby/wxruby2.tar.gz [1.3MB] In terms of output, it''s no advance on what Sean has already done.

Googling hasn''t turned up anything useful and I''m looking at the PickAxe book, and I get the impression that a constant must belong to a class. If I just want a constant like... CompanyPhoneNo = "(602) 999-9999" and be able to use it in any view

I''m trying to install ruby on rails to a host server that I don''t have root access to. The server already has ruby.

I''m using Hieraki to do some documentation for RubyGems. So far I''m lovin'' it. But I have a question. I currently have three books on the site. It seems that the chapter numbers continue from one book to the next. For example, the first book has 7 chapters (numbered 1-7). The second book has three chapters, but they are numbered (8-10) rather than the (1-3) I

Hi A gemspec for installation of wxuby-swig via rubygems.
