Subject: Re: Is there a simple way to find a method definition?

If you're on a mac and using TextMate, you can use
http://gerd.knops.org/files/CTags.tmbundle.zip - it's pretty sweet -
once installed you can type a command to index a project and then
another command to search for the definition of any method the cursor
is on.

HTH,
