I'm currently rewriting with Fox an application I started with Gtk, because 
I've stumpled in a blocking problem with a TreeView (it just crashes ruby 
with a segmentation fault when adding items to the tree). The app is quite 
complex and so it could probably be a bug in my code messing with Gtk .. 
but since it crashes that way it is very difficult to debug.
Never had such kind of problems with Fox, and I used it quite a lot on both 
Windows and Linux.
