Hello Ilias, >> >> Have fun! As always, feedback and suggestions are welcome. IL> I would prefere i pure ruby IDE [because the nature of Ruby requires an IL> native IDE for efficient development]. If you mean scriptable in ruby then i could maybe agree with you. But otherwise the IDE core technology does not matter. In fact i have the same argument as with the ruby in ruby interpreter: Speed, memory and non ability for threading are the main show stoppers for this at the moment. And FreeRide is not a native Ruby IDE, its just glue code around a few components that are mostly written in C/C++: Ripper, Scintilla, FOX. -- Best regards, emailto: scholz at scriptolutions dot com Lothar Scholz http://www.ruby-ide.com CTO Scriptolutions Ruby, PHP, Python IDE 's
