Not in DOS anymore

I have to say, this app makes quite a jump from their old DOS-based UI. I would have no idea how to use it, but I'm sure it makes sense after you get training. Good to know one fewer company's custom app is not tied to MSDN and Windows anymore, moving on to Free Software. I wish I could make applications look at that good.

nice indeed

It is very nice looking application, If you did not notice, it is running on JRuby, so it is using Java desktop libraries like Swing. I still thinks the C ruby VM (and external libraries) needs a lot of work to build desktop applications (and I assume portable like this one). but looking at this application, Ruby on the JVM is wonderful for the desktop.

Re: nice indeed

I was more impressed when I saw a GTK-Ruby app.
