Ok. I did fork it.

My question is then: how do I test my deployment? How do I run my code 
using the forked green shoes instead of the gem I currently have?

Quite basic, right?

I'd use rvm to make new gemset, and install your test gem in it. Then run
your scripts from there.

And +1 to devyn's comment, any and all help is awesome. Keep it up. :)

Hi Eduardo and folks,

> I am actually porting an old red shoes application of mine into green
shoes.
Wow, awesome!
But, not yet implemented all stuffs of Red Shoes.
Also Green Shoes goal is not 100% full compatibility.
So, you may have to rewrite your apps. Sorry. :-P

> the edit box does not get 70% of the stack width.
Yeah, this is one of 'not yet implemented stuffs'. ;-)

> By the way. I am sorry to be messing around with your guy's code.
> It is just... just... that this is kinda fun.
No prob.
As Devyn and Steve said, any and all help is welcome!

> How do I run my code using the forked green shoes instead of the gem
> I currently have?
Go to green_shoes/samples and do `ruby sample1.rb` on your console.
It works using your local forked green shoes code instead of the gem.
Because sample1.rb requires '../lib/green_shoes' instead of 'green_shoes'.

Cool!
I'm really looking forward to get your pull requests.
Let's enjoy developing Shoes in pure Ruby. :-D
