Hi Everyone, especially Karlis

))

Just a nudge for Ruby on Rails support.

Started to get into it and it is brilliant. And it would be such a shame to have to switch from my favourite editor to something inferior

cheers, Dave Porter

Yes, this is already planned. I am currently trying to find out what is ruby and what is Rails and what is the diferrence etc.

So far I understand that Ruby is a language and there is also rhtml format which is like php but with Ruby as a language, so we will have to cover these.

Ruby is the language
Rails is a 'fully stacked' framework written in ruby. basically some prewritten code and a folder structure. basically.

Ok, so it is clear, we need to cover Ruby and shoyuld not care about rails. So as I understand there is pure ruby (.rb files) and HTML + ruby (.rhtml), right?

almost. Correct re: Ruby. Rails does have Classes and Methods that should also be included in a syntax highlighting library.

You can find the class/method info here: http://api.rubyonrails.org/

this fella may have done most of the work for you: http://www.maravan.in/?p=7 Just open it in notepad.

hope it helps and thanks for looking into it.
