Hmm, it's not quite the same... I want to have an event take place when you
click on the widget, instead of having a button in the widget. You can do
this with a stack:
Shoes.app do
stack(:width=>300, :height=>300) do
click { alert "Boo" }
end
end
But my attempts at doing it with a widget are failing miserably:

I am running r970 now, too.
