Tools written in pure Ruby (no C extensions) for working with PDF documents.

Would be nice to have it included in Ubuntu :)

How fast is ruby? Is it like good C++ or python code? I am thinking of learning me this language as a beginner.

I never benchmarked it, but I can't tell the difference between a python/gtk or a ruby/gtk app by their speed on my laptop (1.4ghz and 512MB RAM). I think they are all about the same.
