In this thread: http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/134298
the poster had a patch to create a stack trace that had "textmate" links it it. He opened a bug report: http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/10401
I can't find that since dev.rubyonrails.org appears dead. I don't know if / how the old tickets got moved over to lighthouse. I searched in the new repository but could not find any hits.
The thread leaves the impression that it is only for textmate users but it isn't. I hooked up the merb links so that Firefox knew what to do with the URL and sent it to emacs and as a result it would pop me into emacs at the proper file and line shown in the exception. I'm sure that similar arrangements could be concocted.
Was this ever ported to Rails? Is there any way someone can get me the patch that was submitted way back then?
Thank you, pedz
