Install and run

For Windows:

1. download and install rubyinstaller-1.9.2-p136.exe
2. gem install green_shoes --no-ri --no-rdoc

That's it!

Now open your text editor and write your first Green Shoes app like this:

#my_first_green_shoes_app.rb
require 'green_shoes'
Shoes.app{ title 'hello world' }

Then run your app on the console window:

ruby my_first_green_shoes_app.rb

You can see this snapshot:

NOTE: Use Ruby-GNOME2 0.90.7 or later.

If you are using Ruby-GNOME2 0.90.6, have to do the following.

• make this file: %{your path of gtk2 gem}\vendor\local\etc\gtk-2.0\gtkrc
• store just one line: gtk-theme-name = "MS-Windows"

Then you can look at good-looking button on Green Shoes. (left button of this snapshot)

Ruby-GNOME2 developer Kou (Kouhei Sutou) included gtkrc in the 0.90.7 distribution. Thanks, Kou. Awesome!
