I just started writing very basic plug-ins for SU last week, I started
learning Ruby a week or two before that. If you know an object-oriented
language, like Java, it doesn't take too terribly long to get started.
I am not an expert, but I think Ruby is more like Python or PHP. I was
just curious to see who else here is interested in writing plug-ins for
SketchUp. I recently signed up at SketchUcation.com--but I learned
everything I know about animation working with KarlC's (Swingman's) Zip
file (kitchen demo)! : )
