Yes, Ruby In Steel has had this for some time - step-into/step-over; breakpoints; watch variables; autos; locals; call-stack (etc.)

http://www.sapphiresteel.com

Activestate Komodo has this feature too. Version 4.0 (still in alpha) has a nice HTTP inspector that allows you to do Ajax debugging as well.

how about “code complete” or “intellisense” or whatever they call that context sensitive drop down list for available methods for the class you’re on - do any of these IDEs offer this? is this possible with a dynamic language?

guys - any other IDE’s right now that support intellisense? (or is this still a niche yet to be filled)
