RadRails is the cross between the two things that I as a software engineer enjoy most, Eclipse IDE and Ruby on Rails. Unlike the Ruby Development Tool (RDT) plugin for Eclipse, RadRails is not a plugin but a whole integrated development environment for Ruby on Rails development using Eclipse. With RDT you can create Ruby projects and create new files with the rb extension to get Ruby context help and auto complete. RadRails is a little more complete allowing you can create a complete Rails project. You can create Rails controllers or models right from the RadRails; you can even start the web server! So what is the verdict? Well, on my OS X environment I still have not been able to create a controller from RadRails but think this is just a configuration problem. Aside from this, I think RadRails is a great IDE to get started with Ruby and/or Ruby on Rails development.
