For rails I would probably give in and just use an IDE as I have had nothing but problems getting Emacs rails plugins to work just right. The IDE just makes things easier when it comes to navigating between all the files in a Rails application. Now if we are talking about just plain old Ruby Emacs (Or that redheaded child called Vim.) will work quite well. One IDE I do like quite a bit is Aptana Studio. Mostly stays out of the way and helps me remain productive. Though it does have some odd bugs. Another good IDE to try is Netbeans as others have mentioned. I am still a bit upset that the Ruby plugin is no longer officially supported, the effectiveness of the plugin left little to be desired for me. ------=_Part_183_23859981.1307133027677 Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit I think it depends on what you are going to be doing with Ruby.  For rails I would probably give in and just use an IDE as I have had nothing but problems getting Emacs rails plugins to work just right.  The IDE just makes things easier when it comes to navigating between all the files in a Rails application.  Now if we are talking about just plain old Ruby Emacs (Or that redheaded child called Vim.) will work quite well.  One IDE I do like quite a bit is Aptana Studio.  Mostly stays out of the way and helps me remain productive.  Though it does have some odd bugs.
