Subject: Re: ruby IDE's

Best would be Netbeans or Eclipse , no doubt .
But both are so slow on my recently bought machine ( Intel Core 2 Duo , 
nVidia 9600 1 GB , 4 GB RAM , Windows Vista ) thats its of no practical 
use . FTP hangs in between , SVN hangs here-and-there , God knows .
For Eclipse i used SVN Connector ( Polarion something ) , for DB I used 
DTP . All are buggy and slow .

Previously I left Netbeans(Eclipse) in favour of UltraEdit because I had 
an Old Machine ( AMD Athlon , 1 GB RAM , nVidia 5200 128 MB  ) . But now 
with 5 GB Memory at disposal , Netbeans and Eclipse are still slow . 
They are , as someone will argue meant for Enterprise Projects or some 
shit like that . So leave them for them and go for UltraEdit ( UEStudio 
) . It integrates seamlessly with Tortoise SVN , FTP and SSH is built-in 
. Loads fast . Has Syntax Highlighting for Ruby , HTMl , Javascript etc 
.

UEStudio ( Ultraedit ) works great for Windows . It is primarily 
focussed towards PHP and Ruby .

Linux Users like me probably know what they are doing :)
Theres plethora . Best would be Scite or gEdit . gEdit comes by default 
with Fedora and Ubuntu and has Syntax highlighting for Ruby .

For Mac , Use Textmate :)

Again , Netbeans comes for all OS's . You can try it ( or Eclipse ) . 
But , I threw my hands up in frustration and came back to UEStudio ( 
Ultraedit ) .

Cheers !
