Re:"A message from Kevin Neelands to all members of Ruby Town on CodeTown!
Just starting with Ruby on Rails. I found one I.D.E. called JetBrains RubyMine, and I'm trying to install the Dynamic Language ToolKit in Eclipse. Does anyone have suggestions for the best I.D.E?

This question would be better posted as a Codetown Discussion in the Ruby Town group so everyone could benefit from the responses. FYI, activity in a Discussion gets emailed to all members of the umbrella Group it's posted in.
Plus, all Codetown members will see the posting in Codetown's activity log.
