Re: [Inkscape-devel] Is there anything like inkex.rb for inkscape?

There are external library to use perl or python with inkscape? Is there anything available to use ruby?

Not currently, but that inkex.py library isn't anything Inkscape specific (per se). It is more SVG wrapper. You could easily write a ruby script using Ruby's SVG module, much like you could write a python script just using PyXML.

Now, I'm not discouraging someone from writing a little convince library for Ruby, I'm just saying that it shouldn't limit you from using Ruby as a scripting language with Inkscape.

Also, I noticed that Mental added Ruby to the list of interpreters, so you should be set. (Thanks Mental!)
