Take a look at http://ecb.sourceforge.net. It's a code-browser that
uses the Semantic engine underneath to provide intellisense-like
features. If you're using a language that's supported by Semantic (c,
c++, Java, Python, some others), ECB is a great tool.

Why is this germane to Ruby, you may ask? I'm 90% finished with a
Semantic grammar for Ruby, and it will probably be released as part of
Semantic in the near future. Which means you get completion,
intellisense, and Class/Module/method mapping in ECB for free.

Maybe if I get enough time I will get it into demo-able form before
RubyConf.

Happy Emacsing!

Maybe there could be a bona-fide Emacs BOF at RubyConf sometime?
