Hi Krum,

You didn't say which OS you were interested in...

I'm new to RoR (6 months in, so take what want from my comments) and
use Aptana Studio, and before I get all the flames from the Rails
gurus regarding IDE's over command line tools can I just say that it's
because my front end is usually Flex, which, like Aptana is built on
Eclipse, so when I was getting started it seemed natural.

I like the Aptana IDE because it also provides a very simple way of
hooking in to the server. Being new to Rails, and coming from a
Windows background, I like the Graphical UI.

That said, I have always used the Shell for the usual Ruby/Rails/Rake/
Capistrano commands etc, and only really use Aptana Studio as the
editor and nothing more. There is no code hinting to get in the way,
but it will tell me if my syntax is wrong (ie unexpected kEND etc)
which is really all I need.

However, the last six months learning curve has been massive, and I am
moving more and more towards the Shell and away from the Windows UI
norms........so maybe one day I will shout about textmate or vim to do
my editing from the Shell - but not just yet ;)

Paul
