ruby with root + qt

Hi all,

I tried to translate the python+qt example from the userguide to ruby.

I had to add one modification (line 17, actually in comments) to get it working, but the program doesn't behave as well as the python-version. Closing the TBrowser and restarting with another click on the button doesn't work. In some cases windows freeze. Without the fork-command the qt-window freezes.

Maybe it's a bug. Does anyone have a better idea how to make it with ruby?
