(or RoRoRoR for short)
Concept
This is a RubyOnRails application for editing RubyOnRails applications.
The idea is that you could play with your Rails application and edit the views and controllers from within the application itself. You could click an "edit" button, and suddenly all the partials and components would have little "edit" tabs on them. There would also be a command to add a new view or controller action (usually both at once) to edit.
Think about it: No more GENERATE! No more TAB-TAB-TAB-FIND-FILE-GODDAMNIT-WHERE-THE-HELL-IS-THAT! No more HASSLES!
Now, I know what you're saying -- "Hey Chris, editing code in a freakin web browser SUCKS ASS!" And you couldn't be more right! That's why clicking edit doesn't give you a gross web editor -- it actually loads up the .rhtml file in your regular code editor (or, if the file is already open in your code editor, it would bring that file to the front). It's quite easy to do since the RoRoRoR app would run on your local machine. You'd just have to pick your favorite editor(s), and WHABAM!
You heard me right: WHABAM!

Routing Navigator is a neat plugin with a drop-down screen for viewing your routes. This same paradigm would be perfect for RoRoRoR.
