[ANN] Zerenity 1.1

Zerenity is an almost clone of
Zenity(http://freshmeat.net/proje...) for Ruby. It allows for
the easy creation of simple graphical dialogs from a Ruby script.

= Zerenity Changelog
== 1.1
* From this version the OK button is set as the default widget. Pressing Enter
in a dialog will cause it to be fired. If you do not want your dialog to have
this behavior set the :activatesDefault option to false. Note that
certain widgets
(List, FileSelection and TextInfo when :editable is set) do not
allow this as Enter
could be used for other actions. Originally suggested by Justin Collins.
* Instead of passing a Gtk::VBox to the build and retrieve_selection
methods, now
pass in the parent Gtk::Dialog.

== Features
Zerenity allows for the creation of the following dialogs
* Date selection
* Text entry
* Error display
* File/directory selection
* Information display
* List display and selection
* Progress display
* Question display
* Text information display and editing
* Warning display

== Dependencies
Zerenity requires GTK2(http://w...) and
Ruby/GTK2(http://ruby-gnome2.sourceforge.j...).

== Installation
Zerenity is avaiable as a Ruby gem. Links to the latest release can be
