I am starting to learn Ruby on Rails. I have an application in mind that I would like to create, but I know I'm going to have to repeat a lot of the things that have already been done a million times (such as user authentication, etc).

I'm using Rinari for Rails development in Emacs. M-x shell will open a new buffer that is correctly PATH'd for my environment (zsh).
