A shitty text editor.
Compared to vi a lot. They both suck.

vi + usefulness (menus) — Not bad. Not great, but not bad. Still vi, so it mostly sucks.

A cross-platform hierarchical note-taking program.
Seems fair, but I’m using it like I would use multiple files opened with Kate.

vi is a textmode editor. It’s so bad even the author regrets it.
For some fucking reason, Linux distributions almost all include it by default.
The only editor I know of which can handle huge files. So horribly horrible though. =(
Ruby-capable, I hear.
See EditPad Lite instead.

Spectacular.

A general editor, although this page has notes on using the Ruby plugin from rubyjedit.org
While it’s really cool to have autocompletion, I think the experience of using Kate with my simple modifications is far better than this crap. My next step up from that would have to be a proper IDE.

A text editor for Ruby Programming.

A console text editor.
Jed does radical new things, such as allowing the user to use tab to insert a “tab” character. It represents an incredible new frontier of usability. Oh, and it has a menu, like any real program would.
Unfortunately, it’s misconfigured and there are no clues as to how to fix it. So it’s useless.
