Subject: Debug tool?

I just started Ruby so I am not going to ask any dumb howto questions
(yet) but am looking for some information that googling is not getting
(and a 24k dialup line isn't helping much, either)

With Perl I use the wonderful graphical debugger ptkdb even though most of
my Perl coding is not graphical. But I wouldn't consider programming in
perl on any system that doesn't have it - whether or not I am using TK.

My first test was to see if it worked with Ruby.  I had some very small
hopes when I saw the statement that Ruby can use TK.  But alas no, ptkdb
doesn't.

So, anybody know of a graphical debugger for (Linux) Ruby yet?  I know it
comes with a built in tool just like Perl, but I don't like it any better
than I like the native Perl job.

Thanks
