RubyCocoa

RubyCocoa is some cool shit I use regularly, although I don't know shit about how it works. As far as I understand it, it glues Cocoa and Ruby together, hence the name. :)

Using it for a while now, I came to this conclusions:

RubyCocoa makes developing Cocoa-Apps much faster (just think about string conversions, string matchings and so on)
RubyCocoa Apps compiled on MacOS X 10.5 compiled for MacOS X 10.5 will run on MacOS X 10.6, too.^[1]
RubyCocoa Apps compiled on MacOS X 10.6 compiled for MacOS X 10.5 will not run on MacOS X 10.6!^[2]
