There are millions of threads about this topic, but ok, here's a short,
incomplete list (assuming you want to code Ruby):

          - Emacs[1] or XEmacs[2] or SXEmacs[3]
          - Vim[4]
          - Kate[5]
          - Eclipse[6] with RDT[7]
          - Scite[8]
          - Freeride[9]
          - ...
          - Paper & Pencil[10]

Which one you choose depends on your platform and your personal
preference.

Regards,
Tassilo
