FROM THE RUBER HOME PAGE:

Ruber is a fully modular IDE for ruby written in ruby using korundum,=20=

the KDE
ruby bindings which works on Linux (and should work on other Unix-like
systems)

Fully modular:

Except for the basic infrastructure, all of Ruber=E2=80=99s functionali=
ty is=20
provided
by plugins. This means that any user can easily augment Ruber=E2=80=99s=
features=20
by
writing his own plugin. He can also replace functionality provided by=20=

the
plugins coming with Ruber in a way which integrates seamlessly with=20
Ruber
itself.

Written in ruby:

Ruber is written in ruby, and so, of course, are its plugins. This mean=
s=20
that
its users already know the language needed to extend it. A very=20
different
situation from, for example, Netbeans where you=E2=80=99d need to learn=
Java to=20
write
a plugin for programming in ruby (in other aspects, Netbeans is a good=20=

IDE,
with very nice plugins for developing in ruby).

Using the KDE ruby bindings:

Ruber uses the wonderful KDE ruby bindings, which makes it expecially=20=

suitable
for people using a KDE desktop (but can be enjoied also by users with a=

different desktop). In particular, Ruber makes use of the excellent Kat=
e=20
part
for the editor window, meaning it has the extremely well-written ruby=20=

syntax
highlighter and most of the tools Kate itself has.

If you try it, please let me know what do you think.
