[ANN] FXRuby Book is Now in Print!

[Lyle Johnson]

All,

I'm pleased to announce that the new book, "FXRuby: Create Lean and
Mean GUIs with Ruby", is now available in print:

http://www.pragprog.com/titles/fxruby

This is the first book ever dedicated to the subject of FOX and FXRuby
application development. It is intended for software developers who
are already comfortable with Ruby programming and who want to learn
how to develop GUI applications with Ruby. No prior experience with
GUI development is needed; the book is intended to be useful both to
newcomers as well as those who have worked with other GUI toolkits in
the past.

The purpose of this book is to give you a head start on developing GUI
applications with Ruby and FXRuby through a combination of tutorial
exercises and focused technical information. It isn't a comprehensive
book on FXRuby programming, and it's not a reference manual. What this
book will do is get you over the initial conceptual hurdles and equip
you with the practical information that you need to build your own
applications. So surf on over to the Pragmatic Programmers site and
order your copy today!

Lyle's interview on the pragmatic podcast is well worth a listen if
you're interested in what FOX is and what FxRuby provides:
