OK, I tried it under Windows and I'm seeing the (different) behavior 
that you reported. Don't know why this doesn't work the same way, but I 
did find a workaround; just override your main window's create() method 
and add a line that tells the main window to resize itself to its 
preferred width and height, i.e.

	class TwoButtonUpdateWindow
		def create
			super
			resize(defaultWidth, defaultHeight)
		end
	end

This gives the desired result for both Windows and X11.

Hope this helps,
