Irrational Exuberance

You are writing a comment about Getting started with Shoes on OS X, here is a quick summary:

Shoes is a GUI toolkit worth a look. Simple design, brief code, and Ruby make for a pleasant experience. As long as you can overlook the minimal documentation and unpredictability that comes with young projects.

This is the second time I tried a shoes tutorial and both times, on Ubuntu (dapper and now gusty), the results are no where nears what the non-linux platform show. In my try, the text method does not exist(I tried the para method) and the one for "some motion" seems to have the drawing region hiding the button. Ugh.
