Ruby Debugging - step-thru?

is there a way of being able to step thru your code like in VS.NET to
see when it fails?

i know you can set breakpoints in the console but just wondering if
there's a more feature-rich way?

I use ArachnoRuby from Scriptolutons. It's good. And I'm toying with
Ruby in Steel, which runs in the .Net developer environment.

The Ruby In Steel debugger does:
- Step into/step over/step out.
Plus:
Watch windows, drill-down to expand variables, autos, locals,
call stack navigation, debug Ruby code or embedded (RHTML/ERb code) and
quite a bit more besides. plus (in version 1.2) tracepoints, conditional
breakpoints, break on exception, standard Ruby or JRuby debuggin.

The Cylon debugger is, btw, very fast (as far as we are aware, it is the
fastest debugger available for standard Ruby).
