Just a clarification:
The term Tcl/Tk js used a lot, but you have to separate between Tcl and Tk:
Tcl is a scripting language, and Tk is a GUI toolkit. The Tcl/Tk pair usually meant a Tcl script with a Tk GUI.

Regarding your question, what you probably want to know is how to access the Tk toolkit from ruby. I assume you for want to call an existing Tcl script from ruby.

For Tk alone, rake a look at:

You should have really googled this by yourself.
