Notes:

* 	The files hello and widget have been changed to test Tk::TCL_VERSION
	and Tk::JAPANIZED_TK before requiring tkencoding.rb to prevent an
	infinite loop.  This test was taken from a message in
	[ruby-talk:18559] by Guy Decoux.

*	The .bmp files in the images directory are X bitmaps (i.e. XBM to many
	graphics packages), not Windows bitmaps (.bmp).  You will not be
	able to use images exported by a graphics program as Windows
	bitmaps with this demo collection nor will you be able to edit the
	included images without setting the file type correctly.

# ==== Introduction. ====
#
# To create this version of the Ruby/Tk widget demo, I took the
# ruby-tk81-demos and removed all the Kanji strings and comments.  I
# have tried to restore the original English strings and comments
# using the Tcl/Tk8.2.2 version of the widget demo.
#
# When I tried running the Kanji version, all I got was a mostly blank
# panel with a non-functional "File" button. I disovered that if all
# non-ASCII characters were replaced with blanks, then I could get the
# gutted stuff running.
#
# Since English Ruby/Tk documentation is lacking and I needed this
# code to see how it worked and to use as the basis of my try-it
# prototype (The Ruby Yielding Interactive Toolkit), plus the fact
# that no help was forthcoming for making the Kanji version work (plus
# the fact that I can't read Kanji anyway), I decided to embark on
# this English restoration project.
#
# Thanks to everyone who worked on the original Ruby/Tk widget demo
# (and the preceding Tcl/Tk version for that matter).  The
# comparatively simple task of changing text strings and comments has
# made me appreciate the great amount of original work that went into
# this.

# ==== Known bugs. ====
#
# ^C-ing the demo gives Ruby interrupt and stack message; clean exit needed.
# Font settings don't work correctly.
# Dismissing the embedded windows demo (tkwind.rb) kills the widget demo.
# Rerunning the canvas item demo from the code widow get errors.
# The "press me" button in the canvas item demo doesn't time out.
# The simple 2 d plot starts up extremely slow compared to the Tcl version.
# The first item message on the icon menu on the menu and cascades demo doesn't work.
