There's a little discussion of this at

   http://www.rubygarden.org/ruby?VimRubyInterface

This capability of Vim doesn't seem to be heavily used.  I certainly
don't use it.  Partially because the integration is a bit lacking (but
you could do Ryan's aligner very easily - but then there's an
excellent and well-supported vim plugin for that anyway).  Partially
because I couldn't be bothered.
