A few folks mentioned their editors, so... my favourite editor is RubyMine 
(by JetBrains), I only used the trial version and haven't registered it yet 
but it's slightly better than my previous favourite TurboRuby (by 
Embarcadero) because it has more smarts and is actively maintained.  Both 
TurboRuby and my previous previous favourite, Arachno Ruby (by 
Scriptolutions), aren't being actively maintained anymore.  All these 
editors provide a code-completion, syntax checking and debugging experience 
more like Delphi and Visual Studio (minus the native GUI designers of 
course).

As a side note, it would be really nice if the Windows Ruby installer 
installed and automatically configure Mingw for GEM compilation so that when 
I "gem install" something in Windows without a recent pre-built binary that 
it compiles one just like Linux does.  For example, after a few hours I gave 
up on trying to get the Ruby-OpenAL GEM installed on Windows because it 
seemed like to much work for the experimenting I wanted to do.  I later 
tryed the same thing on Linux Mint and the install was painless.  It would 
be nice if the experience in the Windows platform was similar.  Since the 
Mingw compiler has made the performance difference between Linux and Windows 
much smaller I prefer to stay on Windows since I also  develop using Delphi. 
The only real nuisance on Windows is GEM availability.  It must be a 
pain-in-the-tush for GEM developers to make pre-built Windows binaries.  I 
imagine it would helpful to cross-platform consistency / predictably / 
deployability if there were automatic GEM compilability on Windows too.

Michael
