Hey Jaz what editor are you using to do your Rails coding?

I like TextPad because it's so fast even with a million large files open. I tried the RTDs for Eclipse some time ago, but found it lacking at the time (new versions have been released since).

It saddens me that languages like Ruby are unlikely to ever receive the IDE treatment that Java has.

Well at least on one platform Ruby has a very strong presence. That is on the Mac with the Textmate editor, which seems to be the best editor for Ruby and Rails development. That editor makes me so jealous.

Jedit works pretty good and has some decent Ruby support. I'm writing my own abbreviation rules for faster code completion when I'm playing with Rails.
