this came close to running on my system. locana_builder.rb ran but
came up with a 'cannot convert nil into integer' error. clicked on
ignore, but trying anything else with the interface did the same thing.

Locana comes with a GUI Builder that allows you to create applets
interactively.

Strange I downlaoded it installed it and started the gui_builder, it
reacts strange to mouse input it seems it does not matter where the
mous is places is just cycles around arbitrary, on the left hand are
buttons and nothing happens while I click on it. If I click around a
bit I got an error message box telling me that something is not there,
then while running the test and just clicking around the application
crashes. If I run on any of the buttons at the top of the tst_locana
nothing happens.

Here are just a few hints from the stack

Locana error during triggeron_mouse_move, ...)
Occurred during n_mouse_move event:

If I just move my mouse over the text windows I got
the same erro message
method `on_mouse_out' called on terminated object (0x2aaaabf512b0)

If the curser gets's near the menu the stuff crashes also.

maybe it's my system but I doubt that I messed it up that massivly.

I used to think there wasn't a Ruby GUI Builder but there is one:
visualWX. Check it out here: http://visualwx.altervista.org/

There's also Glade and ruby/libglade, and QT's UI designer.
