I use this feature in emacs all the time. Turn on the iswitchb feature
and then control-x b will show you a list of MRU files. If you just hit
enter at this point it switches to your last used file. If you start
typing the name of a file it will autocomplete to the best match, hit
enter, and it opens that one. I often go into a source dir and say:
Emacs Code Broswer also does this. You can also move between those
files with keystroke commands.
Here is a person using emacs for Ruby stuff:

I'm still just beginning to use the power in it. For me, the window of
function signatures and variable definitions is worth ECB even if I
don't use anything else about it. It's what I missed most about IDE's.
After I get a little more familiar with it, I'll probably try to see if
there is autocomplete functionality in it somewhere. I'm betting there
is, but I just haven't gotten there yet.
