Fun with Shoes
Filed in: Geek, Mac OS X Add comments
Shoes, as I’ve mentioned before, is a great little GUI for ruby applications. I ran across an article last week about Google Translate and a command line interface for Linux called tw, and thought that I might be able to build something in Shoes with it. Well, I couldn’t get tw to build on OS X, but I found a ruby gem called rtranslate that works great! So, over an hour or so, I threw a quick little translator together in Shoes. It’s over at the ShoeBox. Please let me know if you try it (and like it – I don’t like criticism).
