Rails - Jul 2005 - Crimson Editor & rhtml

This is for all those ruby folks that are currently developing in Windows.

I think SciTe is wonderful for Ruby code, but as far as I can tell,
it''s
not much good for doing anything else.  Since I''m currently developing 
rails apps, I need something that does a little bit more.

RubyEclipse still has a long way to go.  It opens all the files I need, 
but the syntax highlighting, etc, just isn''t what it could be. 
I''ve
tried several different things, JEdit did a decent job, but it''s really
slow, and I just didn''t like it much, so I pose the question....what
are
my options here?

I recently discovered Crimson Editor through another post on the list, 
and I love it so far.  It''s got my directory view built in, it does
ruby
code, it''s lightweight and very fast, it does remote editing through
ftp
(which i don''t currently need, but it''s a nice feature ;-) ),
and
everything else I want.  It can filter the files that show in your 
directory view, all that good stuff, but it is still missing one thing.  
It still needs to recognize .rhtml syntax.  I was wondering if someone 
had already created the file for this and wouldn''t mind sharing it with
me.  There have got to be other Windows developers desperate for a good 
ruby solution.

Alternately, are there any existing solutions that meet my stated 
requirements? Thanks in advance for any help.

Cheers,
Ben

I hacked together the html and ruby defs into an rhtml def a month or so
ago, it''s not perfect, but works for me (part of the problem is the
Crimson Editor Syntax language, but oh well). I posted to the language
defs portion of the crimson editor website, along with installation
instructions for the various files required.  If you can''t get to it
let
me know, I''m willing to send it as an attachment off the list.

I also have enjoyed Crimson Editor. David Chilton made an rhtml sytax file, 
too:

http://www.crimsoneditor.com/english/board/CrazyWWWBoard.cgi?db=files

I was using Crimson Editor, until last month when UltraEdit released v11

http://www.ultraedit.com/

I''ve been using UltraEdit for several years for other projects and this
was
a substantial release. Definately worth the trial download.

Thanks David, for creating the file and Nathan for the link.  I actually 
used Ultraedit for awhile, but I couldn''t figure out how to get my
files
to show up in an explorer style, or tree style view.  I love the way 
that Eclipse will package everything up in a heirarchy for you, and I 
couldn''t manage to get ultraedit to do that.  I actually have v.10 
installed and use it for some things (php namely), but for ruby, it just 
didn''t meet my desires.

Thanks again to for your help....my .rhtml files look much nicer now, 
and as I find improvements that are needed, I''ll definately add them in
and let everyone know.

Try ArachnoRuby (www.ruby-ide.com). It''s the best Ruby/Rails IDE for 
Windows in my opinion. And the technical support from the developer is 
very good as well.

What is DHH using in his new Rails presentation from Brazil?

That''s TextMate and it''s only for Mac.

ArachnoRuby is the closest thing to TextMate you get on Windows. It 
evens has the cool dark color scheme.

Does Ruby IDE   (http://www.ruby-ide.com) support versioning via 
subversion? There is little feature info at the moment.
I currently use Eclipse with the Ruby & SubVersion plug-ins, when i can 
get the subversion one working.

The only problems with Arachno Ruby is a slightly unintuitive search,
occasional slowness, and lack of UTF-8 support (this lack is generic
to the Fox UI toolkit they use). Otherwise, it works pretty well for
me.

Joshua Sierles

I haven''t had as much luck with Arachno Ruby, it crashes on my XP Pro
machine pretty regularly, and given it''s slow load time that is
frustrating.

This is with the trial version.
