[wxruby-users] a very simple wxRuby loading a xrc file

[Zignus Arcanniss]

Greetings,
  I am trying to get a very simple .xrc file to load with no
interaction. This does run, but it will not exit cleanly. Can someone
please help me? I have been making progress, but I just cannot seem to
get that last bit. I am very new to wxruby.

Thanks,
Zignus
