Hi Vimmers,  Using Ubuntu Lucid 10.04 with vim & gvim 7.3 (Mercurial source from vim.org and then compiled on Ubuntu 10.04.)  The challenge:     1. How to compile vim & gvim 7.3 WITH ruby support? Is there a compiler setting? Switch? Dependencies?     2. Which vim scripts to use? I have rails.vim in ~/.vim/plugin, rails.vim & rubycomplete.vim in ~/.vim/autoload.     4. Getting the ruby & rails vim-scripts for syntax, highlighting and autocomplete to work with vim & gvim 7.3.   

if you're compiling it yourself, you just need to tell configure to include ruby in the build

./configure --help

..snip
  --enable-rubyinterp=OPTS     Include Ruby interpreter.  default=no OPTS=no/yes/dynamic
...snip...

you'll need the ruby dev packages for ubuntu also
