Great! As said by Reid van Melle, the last release of the Ruby bindings only covers Clutter 0.4 but I am working on updating them to 0.7/0.8. I have a git repo with my work in progress [1]. It it usable with 0.7 but not everything is bound yet. I'm hoping to complete the bindings soon. > What packages I have to install to get it setup? There are no packages for the bindings that I know of so you will need to compile from source. If you install Clutter and its development package and then apt-get install libgtk2-ruby that should get you all of the dependencies needed to build. > What documentation is there? None I'm afraid. The translation from the C API to the Ruby API should be fairly consistent so currently your best bet is probably to read this generic Ruby gobject documentation [2] and the use the C API docs [3]. > What example files are there? There are a couple of example files in the examples/ folder of the source tree. Mainly they are ports of the tests from the Clutter source but there is also thumbnailer.rb which is an example app showing thumbnails of images. Unfortunatly I haven't yet updated it to new bindings so it won't run anymore.
