SapphireSteel Software has just released version 1.1 of Ruby In Steel  
Developer - the professional Ruby and Rails IDE for Visual Studio 2005.

Version 1.1 of Ruby In Steel Developer consolidates the features of  
version  
1.0 which was launched in January. It includes the ultra-fast ‘Cylon’  
debugger with step-into/over, drag-and-drop watch variables, drill-down  
debugging, hovering debug tips, call stack etc.; syntax coloring and  
code  
folding for Ruby code and RHTML templates; integrated project  
management in  
the VS Solution Explorer; plus powerful analytical IntelliSense.

The principal differences between versions 1.0 and 1.1 are increased  
speed  
and stability of IntelliSense, a variety of bug fixes and improvements  
to  
the editor and debugger, better support for servers (Mongrel, LightTPD,  
WEBrick), better integration with the Visual Studio Solution Explorer,  
new  
dockable point-click-and-run Generate and Rake windows and better  
documentation (100+ pages in PDF files plus the integrated help system).

For more details, see the Developers’ Blog:
