rcodetools is a collection of Ruby code manipulation tools. It includes xmpfilter and editor-independent Ruby development helper tools, as well as emacs and vim interfaces. Currently, rcodetools comprises: - xmpfilter: automagic Test::Unit assertions/RSpec expectations and code annotations - rct-complete: 100% accurate (editor-independent) code completion - rct-doc: document browsing and code navigator - rct-meth-args: precise method info (meta-programming aware) and TAGS generation rcodetools includes and supersedes xmpfilter, which has been much improved and extended by rubikitch, ultimately resulting in the rct-\* tools, which are almost entirely his work. See [eigenclass.org](http://eigenclass.org/hiki.rb?rcodetools) for further information. # What’s new 0.4.1 is a maintenance release. Several bugs have been fixed, and rcodetools should work better under win32. The only new feature is the -I option in rct-meth-args. # Download rcodetools can be installed with RubyGems: gem install rcodetools If you try this shortly after a release and you get an old version/a 404 error, please allow some time until the packages propagate to RubyForge’s mirrors. rcodetools is available in tarball format. rcodetools’ executables will run faster when installed this way, since RubyGems add a noticeable overhead. # Usage rcodetools can be used with any editor, but the distribution includes emacs and vim interfaces (contributions for other editors are welcome); see README.emacs and README.vim in the sources for more information.

A nice addition would be a file that collects the best IRB enhancements around – or takes their ideas (history dumping etc.) and implements them in a well-integrated whole. I’d also like to see a program for indenting Ruby code 🙂 Cheers, Gavin ---
