Well, I'll reply in the middle of the paragraph. I usually think about ruby
bindings; how much they are complete and are they stable the bindings are
compared to others. Qt might be the best toolkit to use, however the ruby
bindings are not frozen yet, hence I don't want to use it until rdale stops
modifying how the toolkit works. He just made the signal/slots similar to how
rails works. GTK is very stable and one of the two top best at stability. Tk
is the most stable of course, being around longer since all of the other
toolkits, and now in 1.8.4 having the method to switch all the tk methods to
use tile so the developer doesn't have to call on tile widgets. FOX is okay,
but when you don't call methods right, you end up with crappy code because
you can't find which method you called wrong when you have a 5000 line
script. I don't write line by line, execute as I type each out like a new
programmer, I write half complete programs before I start testing.

For the finale!
