Editors are always a matter of personal choice. The vim family  
(including gvim and cream) have excellent syntax support for ruby. I  
exclusively use vim when writing RoR, and wouldn’t switch to anything  
else.

There’s also an IDE out there named RadRails, but I have no experience  
with it. Might be worth a try if you need more features than just text  
editing.

I’m fond of KomodoEdit and jEdit.

Why on earth are you using CVS? You should try Git or, failing that,  
Subversion. CVS is obsolete and has virtually nothing to recommend it.

Probably from your package manager or from downloads supplied on the  
project website.
