When you hit the "New note" button, the callback is MyMain#new_note(). 
The new_note() method calls make_note(title). The make_note() method 
calls make_note_window(), which returns a reference to an FXMDIChild 
window. Since there's no call to FXMDIChild#create() in 
make_note_window() itself, and since you don't call create() on the 
FXMDIChild returned by make_note_window(), you've got yourself a 
non-created window.

Another problem (possibly tied in to that) was that the new MDI child 
window was constructed with the dimensions (w=0, h=0). I sort of had 
trouble following how and when this was supposed to get resized, so I 
made a change that sort-of works. It's probably best to just diff the 
attached version of tycho.rb (which is modified) against the 0.0.7 
version you sent.

OK. Haven't had a chance to debug this yet, but will do that next. Just 
figured you'd like to have the first bit in hand to proceed.
