Sharing gems (or any files really) from lubuntu to windows

Continuing from my previous post about developing rails using lubuntu vm as rails server, I need to have access to gem files inside lubuntu from windows for viewing its sources..

At first I tried to use virtual box shared folders to store rbenv/gems files but it cause many problems in ruby or at the very least it result in a very slow performance (especially when gems are loading)

After many many sleepless nights (dramatization) I finally succeed by using samba and sharing the gems via (virtual) network with the following steps..

Developing Rails in Windows using Linux Server

Developing rails/ruby app in windows is painful as many gems aren't compatible or optimized for windows. But windows is OS that I'm most comfortable with.. Linux (ubuntu) lack some tools that I need and I simply hate OSX (stupid keyboard layout and hardware restriction), so I prefer dealing with gem problems rather than changing OS..

But then it occurred to me, why not just use virtual machine with linux for server? And turns out it's pretty neat.. And I think some people are too use windows as main OS so I posted here the step for setting up linux vm for rails..

Sublime Text 2: jump to definition

Since I moved from netbeans (which no longer officially support rails) to sublime text 2, the only thing that I missed is jump to definition function, often when I need to know how certain method from a gem works I'm forced to search it manually inside that gem folder while on netbeans I can just use alt+click to instantly navigate there..

After some googling I found SublimeCodeIntel which most of the time isn't working and make sublime heavier instead. But at long last I found about CTags and a Sublime Package for it.

First you need to build the tags file by using Rebuild Tags from command palette, after that using it is pretty much similar to netbeans, but instead of alt+click we use ctrl+shift+click plus ctrl+shift+rightclick for returning to previous position and it's works perfectly... for methods inside the project..

Sublime CTags readme show a script to generate tags for gems which is works perfectly, it will generate tags from all gems specified in Gemfile, but adding the script each time I work on a project is kinda troublesome so I created a simple gem to add several rake tasks for generating tags. The gem basically add 3 rake tasks, one for generating tags for project, one for gems, and the last one for both project and gems.
