RubyOSA provides a bridge from Ruby to the Apple Event Manager. It allows Ruby programs to automate Mac OS X applications in the same way as AppleScript. This is especially neat because it opens the door for developers to write web applications with Ruby on Rails that could include some integration with the Mac (perhaps pulling song lists from an iTunes library and importing them into a web application’s database). I’m sure there’s plenty of opportunities for integration.
