Description esmithbss 2009-10-08 07:28:26 UTC

[ BUILD # : 200910071536 ]
[ JDK VERSION : 1.6.* ]

The current default state for the output window on a new installation
is closed.

When launching a ruby program for debugging, the output window is not
opened automatically.  As a result, the user doesn't have the ability
to monitor the program as it starts or receive feedback on what is
happening.

This appears to be on purpose for rails (i.e. when launching a server), not sure what was the reasoning. For plain ruby 
executions the OW window should be opened (that works for me in the latest build).
