Textmate seems to be the first choice as editor / IDE for Rails application development. Unfortunately Textmate is just available on Mac OS X.
Luckily there’s hope, at least if you’re using Linux. With just a few commands you can pimp up your Gedit, so that it has much of the functionality of Textmate (and that completely for free).
First you want to install some of the standard plugins, which don’t get installed by default:
sudo apt-get install gedit-plugins
Now, download Gmate, unpack it and execute:
sh ./install.sh
That’s it. Checkout Gmate’s webpage for more details.
