Exactly.  My job gave me a copy of TextMate.  I think I used it for one
session, then went back to KomodoEdit.  I certainly don''t see it as
being worth $50 for the way I work.

However, knowing that NetBeans has now got visual Ruby debugging
inspires me to give it another try for Rails at some point.  I still
don''t think that Rails benefits from its heavy IDE nature, but visual
debugging and the Git plugin might be a good combination if both work.

Except...while writing this, I just found out that NB (like Eclipse)
*still* doesn''t have word wrap in 6.9, even though it was promised.
Generally speaking, I don''t like to work in an editor without word
wrap.
Back to Komodo, I suppose.  Oy.


Best,
