See article below. Another thing related to Macs that I've been
reading about lately: The primary author of Ruby on Rails, David
Heinemeier Hansson, is a Mac user and his pal and fellow Dane, Allan
Odgaard, is the author of TextMate, an editor for the Mac.
I have played with TextMate a couple of times, but I don't really
understand all of the excitement. I suspect that's because I'm just too
much of an emacs guy, and my needs are pretty simple.
The RoR developers are nuts about it. I have the impression that most of
them hadn't used emacs before and were working on Windows (as was Hansson
- he is very young) before moving to Mac.
We are starting up our RoR dev project now and are planning to use Linux.
The new programmer starts today and we are planning to buy an Ubuntu
machine from Dell. I'll let you know how that works out. We will try
using emacs with all ruby mode, etc., add ons. I'll tell you how it
compares with TextMate on the Mac - the other half of our dev team (at
http://cbri.umn.edu/ ) is using TextMate on the Mac. I have the
impression that most RoR developers using TextMate are totally in love
with it.
