Welcome to the list, John.
Thanks, _why. I've managed to get Shoes running on the 64-bit version of Fedora-9. I had to copy quite a few ruby packages from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/ to shoes/dist/ruby/lib/x86_64-linux/. The required packages were date/format.rb, open-uri.rb, optparse.rb, parsedate.rb, rational.rb, resolv.rb, resolv-replace.rb, time.rb, timeout.rb, tmpdir.rb, uri.rb, uri/*.rb, and fileutils.rb. Now it's on to the business of writing some Shoes code! -- John.
