Chris, I found a snippet that you have posted in the past which will get me started. Thanks.

Thanks for the prompt reply, Chris. I will look forward to your code-snippets and will also search this forum for 'tool'. All I needed was a push in the right direction, and you gave it to me. In all the tutorials, yours included, no-one spoke of a tool, only of plugins, that's why I didn't know how to proceed.

There must be some kind of interface between the ruby scripting and SketchUP, beside the web console or the ruby console. Lets say you want to make a plugin that when the user is over a face it changes color and when he is gone form the face, it returns to the default color. Writing it in the web console alone will not let you try it since it goes through the code only once and you don't get a chance to go with the mouse over a face.
