I'm using Passenger right now, not Mongrel, but I'll keep that in mind. > There's > also the glassfish gem, which allows one-command deployment of an > entire app, all in a single process.

That may be worth trying out, then. I don't think that was available the last time I looked at JRuby seriously.

If I were doing a multilanguage project, of course I'd try to find an IDE that handled them all well. However, I'm not, which means I get to pick an IDE that is best for what I'm working with. That currently means no IDE as such for Rails, and probably (speaking hypothetically) Xcode for Objective-C, Eclipse or perhaps NetBeans for Java...

KomodoEdit blows them both out of the water, and I understand TextMate blows KomodoEdit out of the water. No word-wrap in Eclipse or NetBeans? Srsly?
