Portable Ruby GUI Toolkit

Question

I am in need of a GUI toolkit that goes a little further than tk does, but my school's computers do not allow programs to run if they try to create/alter files on the local disk. Because of that, I need a portable GUI toolkit for Windows. Does anybody know of one?

Green Shoes, just install the gem, copy it along with your Ruby map to a stick and you are off to go.

gem install green_shoes

Shoes.app{
  e = edit_line
  button("Click me!"){alert("You entered #{e.text}")}
}
