Jedit is my primary text editor these days and has been for over a year. What it loses in responsiveness due to being java-based (and truly it’s not that bad speed-wise) it more than makes up for in configurability and extensibility. Today I found the ruby editor plugin. There are easy to follow instructions on the site for getting it installed and configured, which you’ll need since unfortunately it doesn’t follow the normal jedit convention of simply using the jedit plugin manager for install. Still it’s more than worth the effort – ruby code completion, a great code structure browser, and integration with all your other fave jedit plugins.

Thanks for the vote of support for the jEdit Ruby Editor Plugin!
When I get a stable build that I’m happy with I’ll go through the plugin manager release process to make it downloadable via the jEdit plugin manager dialog.

Hi Rob,
Sure thing. I’ve actually been using it for a while, I just noticed a new location for the download (or at any rate a redesigned one) with much better documentation on the install process which is why I blogged it this time. Anyway thanks very much for the super useful tool. I’m glad it will work its way into the Jedit plugin manager.
