How to write a GNOME applet with Ruby

Question

Is there a good guide or tutorial for writing GNOME applets with Ruby?

Answer 1

This code might be useful if you need a ruby-gnome2 statusicon: sample code. Here's the documentation for Statusicon. I can't remember what the relationship is between an applet and a statusicon, but I want to say that an applet is just a configuration file that initializes a statusicon class.
