Hi,
First of all, your until loop was not correctly conditioned ("untill $killed
= true" will run forever :) ... but still even after correcting the
condition I could not make it to work for some reason Shoes hung. Try this,
it worked for me .. at least third window started to display some data;)
require 'socket'
Shoes.app do
$server = TCPSocket.new("projectbob.game-host.org", 4000)
$killed = false
window do
flow :width => 600 do
every 1 do
if $killed == true
line = $server.gets
para line
end
end
end
end
window do
flow do
$prompt = edit_line :width => 550
$prompt.text = "Type here!"
ok = button "snd"
ok.click { $server.puts($prompt.text) }
end
end
button "Disconnect" do
$killed = true
end
end
