My first ruby program - a program to animate my 1796 Skytrain Photos from flickr

Let's say you had 1796 photos in a directory from flickr and wanted to animate them in Shoes which is built on Ruby, how would you do it?

Here's how I did it (forgive my bad code, it was just a fun 1st project and of course you could do this in QuickTime Pro with no programming but that wouldn't be as much "fun" :-) !):

Shoes.app {
  flow :width => 1024, :height => 768, :margin => 50 do

Dir.chdir("/a directory with 1796 skyte photos")
skyte_pics = Dir.glob("*.jpg")
size = skyte_pics.size
@skyte =       image skyte_pics[0]
        animate(200)  do |frame|
          close if frame > size
          @skyte.path = skyte_pics[frame]
        end
  end
}
