What is your favourite IDE?

I prefer using eclipse for it's freedom, ruby and svn plugins etc. But
the big problem now is, debuggin does not work anymore after v. 3.2
and a solution seems to be quite some time away and rdb is a little
unhandy for a lazy type like me...

So what IDE do you prefer in order to code and to debug ruby?

NetBeans and the command line.

Emacs for coding. I find that debuggers are frequently useless and
almost always more trouble than they are worth, so I generally debug
with unit tests and, when necessary, puts().

My favorite IDE is the one I get paid to use, and my favorite programming language is the one I get paid to use as well. But since I don't get paid to program in Ruby, perhaps my opinion isn't relevant. For Ruby programming, I have two IDEs -- the Linux desktop and Komodo (the paid version). But if you like KDE and don't mind locking yourself out of Windows and Macs, KDevelop is awesome!

Although some will argue what an IDE is, I'll assume the looser meaning.

I use TextMate, irb, and bash/command line; I'm very happy with that
setup.

I agree with that, there are cases when a debugger is useful, but not
very often. It's too easy to use the debugger as a crutch, and not
write assertions or unit tests. In Ruby, I often open the unit test
file and the file I'm working on at the same time, and then I use
TextMate's "Run Focused Unit Test" command to test it as I'm coding.

To run little snippets of code, I use either irb (which I always have
open) or I use TextMate's "Execute Selection as Ruby", which is cool.

I've never coded in it, but the way people describe the IDEs used for
SmallTalk sounds intriguing to me. If you could integrate irb into
TextMate, that would be very nice, indeed.

I still use SciTE.

I started using EditPlus, and quickly ran from it to freeRide.
For awhile I used freeRide (is that poor project abandoned now?) but I
had to give up after too many crashes. Despite it all, I really liked
it.
Tried Eclipse, and found it to be a great editor, but clunky when it
came to running & debugging ruby code from within it.
I wanted to try the netbeans stuff but haven't gotten around to it.
Jedit didn't really seem to work all that well, maybe it's just personal taste?

SciTE doesn't have a debugger, but it'll run ruby code from within it,
hop to errors, show output etc.
It's got an annoyingly small number of tabs available, but usually
it's enough.
The text highlighting is good, and it'll collapse loops methods and
classes pretty well. Pretty well, not perfectly.

Oooh, and it's never crashed on me. I can't say that about freeRide
(hourly) or even eclipse (though rare).

Interestingly the SciTE webpage shows intellisense type stuff for
python and other languages. I wonder how to get that working in
ruby... That would make it about the best ruby IDE currently
available. Yes eclipse/netbeans may be fuller, but SciTE is tiny and
light weight.

I'm using Komodo and I like it. I did a rather lengthy evaluation, and threw out Eclipse mostly because it was too big and too Java-oriented. That left some Ruby-specific tools, which I think are rather weak, KDevelop and Komodo. I really like KDevelop -- it's extremely well integrated with Ruby, Qt and KDE, as well as SVN and CVS, C/C++ and, as far as I know, Perl, Python, PHP, Java, Javascript and HTML.

What pushed me over the edge from KDevelop to Komodo was the fact that it was really a one platform -- one sub-platform, actually -- solution. If you want to develop for Windows, Macs, use a toolkit other than Qt, or a desktop other than KDE, you have a fair amount of work to do. Komodo runs on at least Windows and Linux, is toolkit neutral (but prefers Tk / ActiveTcl), and has a pretty good Ruby interface. But if you can live with KDevelop's platform biases, I think it's the way to go.

I'm just curious whether Vim supports Ruby debugging? I've googled out
just some information about "How it would be technically possible". But
not any working implementation. So is there any?

Thanks,

I agree e text editor is great. I just wish there was a Linux version.
