Question

Mac\'s have TextMate as there preferred application for ruby development, but what would be the preferred application for linux? I need something where it\'s easy to work wi

Answer 1

The other answers are about ruby editors, so I thought I will add an answer on my linux setup.

I use Ubuntu with VM player (free) on top of windows 7. I dedicate 2 core and 2 GB to the vm. Benefit of using the VM on top of windows is that I can use linux just for development and windows for everything else. Skype, webex, and team viewer works in windows, but i find them to be flaky in linux. Also I use office once in a while, very easy on windows.
