I second that, sort of. :)


I much prefer some variation on vim, but I've worked with folks who have 
vouched for the powers of Netbeans, folks who also like Textmate.

There is a vi plugin for Netbeans, but it was still not as comfortable 
for me as actual vim.  However, if emacs or vim are not your choice, the 
project management code, completion, refactoring tools, Rake 
integration, built-in help, and other Ruby niceties in Netbeans are 
really good.

I strongly recommend taking the time to learn vim or emacs, but 
otherwise use Netbeans.
