> I would love being able to write ruby instead of java

You can do that with InfraRuby (http://infraruby.com/) if you don't mind writing type annotations.



Thanks for the downvotes! In case it's not obvious, this is a free download (follow the "Installation" link). A major update will be released next week!

InfraRuby compiles Ruby with type annotations to ordinary Java classfiles.


Wow, that is well hidden. Also: I don't get "Live" form. Wouldn't a "hey you wrote Ruby, but here is your .jar" form make more sense?
