RadRails, achieving focus
The focus of RadRails is going to move towards achieving dynamic content assist. We want an intelligent editor that can tell you what classes are in your workspace or in the rails core and provide potential methods to call much in the same way Eclipse does this for Java. The re-integration of RDT will advance the RadRails editing experience for now but dynamic and intelligent assistance is the goal.All I can say is, "hell yeah." :)

So are you currently using RadRails? I've tried FreeRIDE, Arachno Ruby and Mondrian... only to come back to using TextPad. I haven't tried RadRails yet, although it looks pretty interesting. But what I've seen so far is that all the "features" just don't balance out against the light-weight ease of TextPad. And I'm no stranger to IDEs, coming from .NET.
Maybe I just expect too much from an IDE. And maybe Rails is just so elegant that we have less reliance on all the cool features like auto-complete and intellisense for the day-to-day tasks.
Hi Jason,
Yeah, I dig RadRails. It's built on Eclipse and I love Eclipse for Java development. RadRails just feels right.
