OS for rails development: Windows vs. Mac?
Caveat: this is not a discussion about *hosting* a rails app on windows.
Anyway...Macs are everywhere you look when researching rails (demo vids,
tutorials, and pictures from rails training classes). I''m interested in
what the pros to using a Mac for rails development are (besides
textmate). Is it more of a cultural thing, a what would 37 signals do
thing, is it a unix thing, or

IDE recommendations?
I was wondering if there are any IDEs out there that has autocomplete
features for win32.
It would be perfect if it could do something akin to what DHH is doing
on the screencast hosted on the rails website.

Rails VPS Business Hosting
Greetings,
Does anyone have experience with Rails VPS hosting? I''m basically
looking for a hosting reseller option so I can have control of my
clients domains and hosting. I''m looking for something easy to use;
although I like learning it all, and am learning a lot, I am most
definitely not a command line linux user type as of yet.

rmagick->X11 on MacTel Howto?

Wazzup with the rubyonrails-talk Google Group?
I just got a Google Groups notification that I had been
subscribed to http://groups.google.com/group/rubyonrails-talk.
Looking at the page, it appears that about 4300 folks have
been subscribed. However, I saw nothing about this on
rails@lists.rubyonrails.org. Wazzup?

Markaby Installation Issues
Ok,
So I followed the directions.. I did a ''gem install markaby'' (which sounds
like its enough to get me going for rails), but I wasn''t sure, so I tried to
install the plugin as well.
Plugin installation fails looking for a file:
Script/plugin install http://code.whytheluckystiff.net/svn/markaby/trunk
Outputs this error:

Hello there,
So I''m still struggling with this fastcgi stuff. I''m trying to upload and

Has markaby been abandoned?
Recently discovered Markaby. Before I use it on a production system, I''d
like to know if it is still being maintained? According to the change log,
the last change was in February of 2006. Does this mean that the project has
been abandoned? Or, at version 0.3 it was considered production stable and
complete?

detecting changed data
I am working on an application where there are many different screens to
access the data in a particular record/row. I have links to each data
entry screen at the top. Is there a way to detect whether the current
hash has been changed from the stored record so I can prompt the user if
they attempt to change screens without having saved their changes to the
data?

Request Routing Plugin ( :requirements => { :subdomain => ''thing'' } finally works)
Hi All,
Just a quick note to say that I''ve released an intial version of the
request routing plugin which essentially allows you to use various
request object properties as requirements in routes. Most notably you
can do:
map.connect "thing", :controller => ''main'', :requirements => {
:subdomain => ''whatever'' }

Decimal
Can someone please tell me the best approach to adding support for
editing MySQL decimal types in rails?
I have a field in the DB that represents currency, and the view will not
let save anything past the decimal place so, 10.99 becomes 10.00
automatically.
Any help is appreciated.

Reading the api docs help
Ok so I am at a point that I read my entire book front to back and
around and a around. And now digging through it again .. But I am now
missing a key piece to the clues is the api.
I found http://www.gotapi.com/index.html as a great search tool. But I
can''t make heads or tails of it besides a basic search for exactly what
I am looking for by word. But if I dont know the word I am

fedex tracking
I''ve been using the Business::FedEx::DirectConnect perl module to
track and ship packages via FedEx for awhile now.
I''m wanting to convert some of this functionality over to ROR, mostly
just the package tracking part.
Has anyone successfully tracked a package using the Shipping API out on
RubyForge?
It seems like the functionality is there since it''s just another

map.resource for a plugin
I''m playing around with this plugin and I wanted to use REST in edge
for it. Mostly because it''s there. ;)
I''m actually having problems with how to make the map.resource for it
though. The controllers name is Tumbleror and the models name is
TumblerorPost. How do I actually make the map.resource command for
that so it''s makeing a resource at the url /tumbleror.

View into a String?
I''ve got a nice XML view of my data that works just fine when I call it
from the browser. Now I''d like a different controller method to take
that XML and write it to the file system. Since the XML view lives in
an RXML file, is there a trick to telling the controller "Get your
output into a string" instead of writing it back to the browser? After
writing it out
