XCode, which is part of Apple's (free) development tools, is not too
shabby. I also like JEdit (http://jedit.org/), which is cross-platform,
being written in Java. It's highly customizable. (Go to
http://community.jedit.org/?q=node/view/2124 to download a Ruby syntax
highlighting descriptor that's much more complete than the one that
ships with the current version of JEdit.)
