Simplest Possible
Not very impressive.... But it's as simple as it gets.
Directory Structure:
+ hello_world | - props.rb
props.rb
__ :text => "Hello, World!
Opening it You've already installed Limelight right?
jruby -S limelight open hello_world
"It Ain't Easy Being Green"
This is a version you don't have to be ashamed of.
There's no change to the directory structure.
props.rb
__ :text => "Hello, World!", :font_size => 50, :text_color => :green __ :width => 500, :height => 500, :background_color => :black __ :horizontal_alignment => :center, :vertical_alignment => :center
As you see, it makes extensive use of the __ operator to add options to the root prop.
Here Boy!
The "Hello, World!" text will come when you call. i.e. move to where you click the mouse.
