There is an old japanese implementation of a VB like IDE in ruby (that
I've never tried) for Windows.
Look in the rubygarden wiki.
But believe me, you don't want VB-ness in your ruby code. Instead, you
want elegance and easy editing. There is a reason that all popular
programming languages use ASCII only.
Aur
I want to know if theres an alternative to VB.net using ruby.. I mean in
terms of dragging and dropping to build applications directly.. so that
building apps would be faster in ruby than it already is.
Might seem like a silly question but i do not know any better
Hey, I like Ruby as much as the next guy but "all popular programming
languages use ASCII only" is a bit of a stretch, dontcha think? If you
are talking about __popularity__ then Java and .NET are much more in
the mainstream than Ruby, Perl, Python, et. al. Go look for online
jobs, or in a bookstore or on a college course schedule. If you want
to say "hardcore/historical/expert programming languages" then I might
buy that, since C can definitely join the group. But "all" is a tough
qualifier for my $0.02 US...
