Hello Everyone,
Heya!
Can we make desktop application with ruby? If yes then how? I searched
many of sites but exact result of this question i did not received. I
didnot find any demo or book regarding desktop application with ruby.
What do you exactly mean? Do you want to develop application with
Graphical User Interfaces(GUIs)? If so, yes you can.
There are many libraries for that:
- Shoes
- Gtk
- Qt
- wxRuby
- FXRuby
So far I only tried FXRuby and I like with some minor problem which I
run into and I didn't explore them further, so it is highly possible
that I just didn't do it right 
Or do you mean creating executables? If that's it, yes you can use
Ruby2Exe to create .exe files which will run on Linux, OSX and
Windows(if you create them on each system).
There are also bindings to the WinAPI and to OLE objects(e.g. automate
MSExcel), if that's what you're searching.
The good thing about Ruby? It is a lot of fun to use each of them.
Regards, Thomas

Look into using JRuby with Monkeybars.

Hi Hemlata,
Pl. keep an eye on IronRuby. With IronRuby you can easily create all
deskptop applications as well as web applications.
Microsoft is currently porting Ruby and Ruby on Rails to .Net platform,
and within 2 months you will be able to work just like C# and Vb.Net
with Ruby taking full advantage.
Have a look at IronRuby section in this forums.
Cheers!

A lot of people have suggested each of the major GUI toolkits. If you
need a book, the Pragmatic Programmers have a beta available of their
upcoming book on FXRuby. Also, for something out of the ordinary for
desktop application development, check out Shoes at
