programming on linux

[Judd Pickell]

Eclipse has modules for doing Ruby, Python, Tcl, PHP, and PERL development
as well as Java. Great little util. Even has components for CVS and SVN.. :)

5 minute search on google will get you where you need to go depending on
what you are wanting to do.

Sincerely,
Judd Pickell
