I''m using Eclipse with Ruby Development Tools. I don''t tend to
use the
debugger very often, but it does work. The unit testing facilities are fine.
And there''s the extensibility of Eclipse (for example, I use the vi
plug-in).

In fact, I''ve gone off the Rails for a bit to play around with Eclipse
plug-in development.
