Btw, when you install mongrel, you can edit your server in Aptana and have it use Mongrel instead of Webrick. Another handy thing for Aptana is to incorporate Tail. It is really easy. If you are on a *nix platform, do this:
Run → External Tools->External Tools
In the upper left corner, click the white “piece of paper” looking “new” icon
In the Name field, enter “Tail” without quotes
In the Location field, browse to your tail executable (probably /bin/tail)
In Arguments, enter “-f ${resource_loc}” without the quotes
Click Apply, then Close
In your navigator, open your log directory and right-click on your development.log and Tail should be at the bottom. Click it.
You will now have a constant tail running on this log in the console view.
To keep that view pinned, click the “Pin” icon in the console view. You can tail multiple logs at the same time.
Enjoy.
