What's ry
ry is an remote controller and display for Apple Macintosh.
Technically speaking, it is a web gateway interface for AppleScript.
You can use this as a visual remote controller for Macs,
and also as an additional and external display.

Install
Installing from binary package
just drag & drop 'ry' application to your Application folder.
current version of ry doesn't work in any other place.
(NOTE: You have to install XCode 2.0 or later for OS X 10.4 Tiger, that includes ruby 1.8. thanks > Alex
And for OS X 10.3 Panther, you should install ruby 1.8 yourself.
Binary package of ruby 1.8 can be downloaded from http://homepage.mac.com/discord/Ruby/)
Installing from source code
Installing from source is a little bit complicated.Step 0) Developer Tools from Apple must be installed in your box.
(including XCode2.1 and ruby1.8)
Step 1) Build COCOA UI.
- open cocoaui/ry.xcodeproj from XCode and build it.
Step 2) Copy ry ruby components into the application bundle built in Step 1.
- just type make at the top source directory
% make
Step 3) Install ry.app to your Application folder.
- drag&drop cocoaui/build/Release/ry.app to /Application folder
Step 4) Install rubyAEOSA.
- download rubyaeosa-0.2.4.tgz from http://rubycocoa.souceforge.net/files
- NOTE: you need XCode 2.1 for building rubyaeosa (XCode 2.0 doesn't work)
- build & install by the following step
% mkdir /Application/ry.app/Contents/ext
% ruby install.rb config --prefix=/Application/ry.app/Contents/ext
% ruby install.rb setup
% ruby install.rb install
Usage
1) Launch ry.app and start ry server from 'ry' tab.
2) You can test server by previewing local access.
3) Access your Mac from the PSP browser by entering
'http://[YOUR-MAC-IP]:2000/' as URL.
IMPORTANT NOTE: MacOS X local firewall should be disabled
or port 2000/TCP should be opened for firewall
