Hey list-
Does anyone have an example of using rubycocoa to create a simple app that can display a file open dialog or sheet and then return a stirng of the file path to ruby so I can do some text processing on it? I would really appreciate some pointers. I couldn't find anything that deals with files in the sample programs.
Thanks-

See the NSOpenPanel documentation. I haven't used RubyCocoa much but I would imagine it would look like
require 'osx/cocoa'
opanel = OSX::NSOpenPanel.openPanel
opanel.runModalForDirectory_file_types_(nil, nil, nil)
results = opanel.URLs

the whole thing can be downloaded (see end of tutorial) so you can see
how it works.

Note that that particular demo (a GUI to the tar comamnd) is missing one step of configuration.
You need to connect the NSTableView to the Controller Instance using the
dataSource outlet from the NSTableView.

Thanks for the help to everyone who replied. I was able to get up and running with the app I needed to create. RubyCocoa is very cool.
I have one more question about rubycocoa. Is there any way to bundle a ruby interpreter inside the .app bundle so my app can run on another OS X machine without ruby installer? Is there a built in way to do this with rubycocoa? Or would rubyscript2exe work to do this somehow?
Thanks for any feedback-

This is just wild speculation but you could build a prefix'd install of ruby
and rubycocoa on your machine, and put it into your app bundle. Then write a
little shell script that launches ruby and your script and use that as what
the bundle calls to start your app. Again, I haven't actually TRIED this
approach, but in theory it should work
