SketchUp has a Ruby API

I guess it's been available for a few months, but I just noticed that there's a Ruby API for Google SketchUp. Looks like a cool tool for extending the building interface, integrating SketchUp entities with external software, and building procedural stuff, like making terrain or stairs.

Here's a video of SketchUp developer Mark Limber talking about some of the possible ways to extend the software with the Ruby API.
