I appreciate the feedback. I knew it wouldn't be trivial if it hadn't been implemented but you are exactly right that I was looking for something similar to the list an IDE like IntelliJ or Eclipse used to give me of available methods when I programmed in java.

Anyways thanks for the response and I guess I will have to truly learn ruby.

First Note on Rails: has_and_belongs_to_many is painfully long to type.

Whenever you type that, you usually want has_many :through anyway :)
Let's say i have categories that have many products but many products fit into several categories. Or I have a games with several players but players can play in several games?

Am I wrong to you has_and_belongs_to_many without using has_many :through?

But, it is obviously self-explanatory.
