From: Tobias DiPasquale Date: 2001-08-02T13:17:40+09:00 Subject: [ruby-talk:19003] IDE for Ruby Ruby folk rejoice!! I found an IDE for Ruby in the most unlikely place. ActiveState. Some of you may know them as the Perl for Windows people (as I did, until last night). Anyway, their Komodo IDE has syntax-highlighting for Ruby and code folding and has some neat XML/XSL features as well. It's based off of the Mozilla engine (which places it as the only Linux-available competitor to the technology M$ employs in VS.NET). You can even trick it into executing/debugging Ruby programs!! Anyway, it runs on Linux, Solaris and Windows, although all you M$ users out there will require a license, whereas Linux and Solaris users do not (a good reason to switch to Linux/Solaris if I ever heard one). Anyway, just thought I'd let everyone know all about this. It's got all the cool features of VS.NET, but you don't have to pay $350 for it! http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Downloads/Komodo/index/ P.S. Here's a little tip, though. Don't try to switch to the Modern Theme in Mozilla while running Komodo... -------------- Tobias DiPasquale Solaris System Adminstrator - Villanova University Security/Anti-Virus Application Engineer - CyberSoft, Inc.
