I haven't seen this mentioned in comp.lang.ruby yet, so here goes...

Jetbrains have done their first public release:

OMGWTFBBQ.

Core JetBrains stuff, not just the usual godawfully slow regexp-based
syntax highlighting? Woo.

God, *run configurations*? Why do they insist on taking something simple
and making it complicated?

God, *run configurations*? Why do they insist on taking something simple
and making it complicated?

Because its not simple? Last time I checked, there is at least 3-4
different interpreters for Ruby worth using (classic, YARV, Rubinius
& JRuby) from an IDEA users perspective. Presumably their command
line arguments all differ, and Rails adds another dimension to it all.

My experience of IDEAs Run configurations is nothing but positive -
its defaults are the most sensible you can think of, so all that configuration
is a bit misleading - you rarely have to use it unless you need it.

IDEA is a great tool - the first Java IDE worth a damn, and without it,
eclipse would have nothing to steal good ideas from. I am certainly
quite happy to see them adding Ruby support.
