Towels

Towels for ruby - jack of all for ruby - ala hitchhiker's guid to galaxy towels

Make ruby fun to experiment with, do quick calculations, try out things.. and then move on to your favorite ruby dev environment of choice

• start with a simple dsl driven gui framework for ruby like shoes3, then add other simple wrappers
• wrappers include
  • app - a write and run app to test ruby
  • box - a write and run (interactive) app specifically for media experimentation
    • audio
    • images
    • video
  • gshell - a full runtime ruby environment with pry and output in a gui
    • wshell - similar in a web notebook
  • pluggable wrappers - write your own
  • cmd - a command line only (the default wrapper)
    • could replace irb or pry but may be heavy weight (besides it's going to rely on them)
    • can be used for replacement of popular shell commands - find, grep, sed etc
    • also pluggable
