Hi all !

I began to develop Rails applications with Aptana Radrails under  
Windows. For that I had successfully installed auto\_complete plugin and  
succeeded to use it.  
Now I have an iMac and I’m trying to restart my developments under OS X.

My problem is: when I run the command ‘script/plugin install  
auto\_complete’, the result is:  
Plugin not found: [“auto\_complete”]

I also tried to dowload auto\_complete plugin at  
‘[http://svn.rubyonrails.org/rails/plugins/auto\_complete](http://svn.rubyonrails.org/rails/plugins/auto_complete)’ but the result  
is ‘Page not found’ !!

Could someone help me please?

First, you’ll have to install git, then you should do this:

script/plugin install git://github.com/rails/auto\_complete.git

Also, be sure to be using the latest rails version. All Rails plugins  
moved to GitHub → [GitHub - rails/auto\_complete: NOTICE: official repository moved to https://github.com/david-kerins/auto\_complete](http://github.com/rails/auto_complete/tree/master)

According to [http://agilewebdevelopment.com/plugins/auto\_complete](http://agilewebdevelopment.com/plugins/auto_complete), that  
plugin can be obtained from:

git://github.com/rails/auto\_complete.git

Just coming back after holidays…

Thanks a lot to Mauricio, Matt and Jakub, but I’m still a newbie on RoR  
and I prefer not to use Edge Rails yet…  
As I previously used auto\_complete plugin under Windows, I just copied  
\<my\_app\>/vendor/plugins/auto\_complete directory to its new location  
under OS X and it works out!

Cheers
