While creating a project with monkeybars, I noticed a few places where it could be improved:

- it would be nice to have a .gitignore generated with the project

- to make the widgets look native on windows, this code is useful in main.rb and perhaps could be added to the default:

when /^win|mswin/i # Windows specific code
  begin
 javax.swing.UIManager.setLookAndFeel(javax.swing.UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName())
  rescue => e
  end

- I wanted to create those suggestions as issues, but couldn't create a ticket. Kenai seems really slow and buggy, and really feels like from an old era - have you considered Github?

Both of those can certainly be added. Do you have a .gitignore I can toss in?

Github has been considered, but we don't get a lot of time to maintain Monkeybars. It's nice to have all everything consolidated into one place with one login, with discussion forums, multiple repositories, and a downloads section. There's certainly room for improvement, but the old JIRA bugtracker works (it's what the JRuby team uses, for example).

If you're having trouble filing tickets I'd be glad to help. I'm sure the Kenai team would be glad to help too (:
