Ruby IDE

Hi guys, I've been making various ruby programs for a while, and I wanted to know what you guys thought a good ruby IDE for a mac is.  Help would be appreciated.  I know this isn't related to scratch, but I thought I would get more answers here than in miscellanious*


*Sorry for bad grammer


Yeah, I'm mostly inactive.  I check in once in a while though.  If you want to contact me, I have a contact form at my website, http://escratch.org

Re: Ruby IDE

Aptana / RadRails is pretty good for Ruby/Ruby on Rails (it's based on Eclipse so it should work on OS X). Textmate is also pretty good. There are probably more, just search on Google and you should find some good ones.

Thanks, I'm about to try out radrails, I saw an IBM article about it, but it wouldn't download on the windows that I tried it on before.  It's working now though.  I'll respond with my thoughts on it.

Re: Ruby IDE

C'mon, you can do better than a text editor! :P

Rubymine or IntelliJ with the Ruby plugin (both made by Jetbrains) work really nicely. If you plan on leaving Ruby (D:) then I'd go with Jetbrains because it has support for many other languages.

Re: Ruby IDE

Um, I don't really know (I've been just doing stuff in Notepad), but maybe Eclipse => :not_sure_about_that_last or TextWrangler => :if_you_have_a_mac or Notepad++ => :general_all_purpose
