I would stick with vim and some ruby completion, but Eclipse should have some Ruby plugins like RDT that look interesting

Not wanting to start a flame war here, but does anyone have a recommendation for a text editor similar to TextMate on OS X? I'll be doing primarily Ruby on Rails programming..
Komodo Edit?
It offers basic IDE functions such as project, autocomplete/call-tip, code snippets, and works well with mix of html/js. No setup needed (unlike eclipse, jedit, vim, ...). The biggest problem is lack of code formatting.

i prefer nano/vi as console editor and scite on the desktop

There is a very nice-looking rails minor mode for emacs, that I've been looking into. It simulates lots of Textmate's features on emacs.
Sadly, I'm too much of an emacs newbie to get it to work. help?

my editor of choice is nano. I would use vi but I am really lazy and never got the hang of it. I just think nano/pico's ctrl functions are easier to use

Keep in mind that what ever you choose, a getting very familiar with a text based editor is best. The gui is not always going to be there for you. Especially if you ever become a systems admin or even a programmer where ssh'ing is your primary interface to other machines.
Unless you use KDE/Kate, the FISH KIO slave is just so useful!

The e-text editor (aka TextMate for windows) is going to be released for linux once it reaches v1.0 (but is proprietary, so I wont be using it ).
I believe SciTE can be made quite similar to TextMate. I haven't given it much of a try myself, like T-Dawgas I require my editor(s) to work over shh (so just Kate and Vim for me).
