module PlasmaAppletMinimal
  class Main < PlasmaScripting::Applet
    def init
      tool_tip = Plasma::ToolTipContent.new
      tool_tip.main_text = 'Whatever...'

      Plasma::ToolTipManager.self.set_content(self, tool_tip)
    end
  end

This is a separate problem from the singleton bug. It is because the ruby 
scripting bindings need special casing so that you don't need to keep passing 
'parent.applet_script.applet' as an argument and can use 'self' instead.

I fixed it for the 'setContent' in the trunk version of 
kdebase/workspace/plasma/scriptengines/ruby/applet.rb a couple of days ago. 
However, I haven't be special casing the lower/case underscore versions and so 
I need to go though the methods that are special cased and and the lower case 
variants. So for now you need to call 'setContent' instead of 'set_content'.
