TUI library

Hi all,

I'm new to Ruby and I've fallen in love ;-)

But now I'm facing the development of an TUI (Text User Interface) based
application. So, I'd like to know which library you recommend to me to build
the user interface (not ncurses directly but CDK or something similar -
there's no CDK binding for Ruby).

Thank you very much.

I suppose there was a CTK binding but I can't find it atm..
anyway you could look at
http://raa.ruby-lang.org/list.rhtml?name=jttui
and
http://raa.ruby-lang.org/list.rhtml?name=ruby-newt

I maintained this package in Debian for a while, but it needs a lot of
work on API, and it uses its own hacked curses implementation, and it
isn't worked on by original author, so I orphaned it. I would advise
against using it.

Never used this one, but it appears to be even more outdated than JTTui,
and isn't even listed on author's home page.

I would say, state of TUIs for Ruby is rather poor. Anyone tried to tie
up Ruby GNOME2 with text-mode Gtk?

Yes, I noticed that.

Yes, gtk cursed is my next option. It's cool, but sometimes it takes me to a
segmentation fault. However, I'll keep trying.

Thank you again.
