Hi! After searching the list''s history an the rails-wiki I come to the conclusion that the subject of "which software to use for rails-coding" isn''t disucssed and written down yet. So here is my question: Watching a video like http://rubyonrails.org/media/video/clips/components.mov five question come to my mind 1. Whats the name of the commendline-software? 2. What does the mysterious "e ."-command do? Seems to open the edit-app? 3. Whats the name of this edit-app? 4. How do those shortcuts work (videotime: 01:08) that create "render_component :controller => "", :action => """ out of "rceca"? And last but most important: 5. What is an equivalent software for those two on Windows? Thanks for your help! ~Tobias -- Weblog: http://flyingsparks.wwwfiles.de/

It even has a ruby on rails color schemeTM is a really great editor and is developed by a really smart, friendly and interested developer, that is a friend of DHH. Just like rails, TM makes it easy for you the end user to use it in the most productive way for you. It''s really worth your time checking it out.> 2. I believe the shortcuts that you specified are just macros that > you can setup in TextMateActually it''s a Snippet with a tab trigger of "rceca". TM supports: Commands = anything you can do on the CLI you can do in a command. Macros = any sequence of actions taken in TM recorded, saved and replayed. & Snippets = common bits of text/code that you can insert into your document with key/tab triggers. You can even combine all of these into one macro item with very little work. TM ships with roughly 30+ Rails ''shortcuts'', and more exists/are in production among it''s users.> 3. I believe he''s using iTerm (http://iterm.sourceforge.net/). > Great replacement for the built-in Terminal.app. You can have tabs > for different sessions ala FirefoxJust to point out, the current version of iTerm (0.8.1) has a bug that doesn''t save your configuration preferences, between sessions. The way around that is to create your configuration, and then *before* closing the app, you copy the iTerm.plist and convert it from binary and then edit it. Irritating workaround, but at least it works. (using OS X.4.2) Now to answer the other unanswered questions:>> 2. What does the mysterious "e ."-command do? Seems to open the >> edit-app?The "e ." could be one of two things. 1. A bash (CLI) alias that opens the TextMate app with the path given inside. (the . (dot) means ''this directory'') 2. A renamed version of the TM CLI tool (know as tm), so he could have written "tm ." instead.>> 5. What is an equivalent software for those two on Windows?Absolutely no idea about the iTerm equivalent, but I believe a lot of switchers to TM has been using UltraEdit before. Jedit might also be good. Kind regards, Mats ---- "TextMate, coding with an incredible sense of joy and ease" - www.macromates.com -

Probably some of you use eclipse for some time and might have created some template librarys for autocompletion of tags? Brian describes how to do this on hin site: <%= link_to "", :controller=>"", :action=>"", :id=>"" %> I belief with the cursor-pointer in it it is even more helpful <%= link_to "${cursor}", :controller=>"", :action=>"", :id=>"" %> Did someone define other helper that he would send (exporting is easy as I saw). Thanks ~Tobias PS @ Brian: You wrote "The context should be ALL HTML" in your tutorial but I dont have such an "all html", only "all jsp" in this dialog-box. Is it a different version or a writing-mistake?
Tobias Jordans wrote:>And last but most important: >5. What is an equivalent software for those two on Windows? >Well, there is no real equivalent to TextMate on Windows but you might check out Slickedit (http://www.slickedit.com) ... I started using it long before I started working on Ruby and Rails projects and it is very powerful and extendable, but currently there is little in the way of official support for either built in. That isn''t as bad as it sounds though because you can hack together syntax highlighting and macros quite easily. TextMate *really* makes me wish I had a Mac, though :-) Cheers, Tim
