You also need to run vim-ruby-install.rb to copy the files
where Vim
can find them.

Not that I'm aware of; most of what vim-ruby does happens
automatically anyways.  For the two features mentioned
above, see the
Vim help:

:help 'keywordprg'
:help 'balloonexpr'

Okay. I've done that now.

"Program to use for the K command." I read on
further, but didn't see  
anything that helped me understand what this does. Maybe I'm
just  
being dense.

This seems like it could be cool. I'm guessing it will let
me put the  
cursor on a Ruby module, class or method name, press some
key, and  
see help in a popup tooltip. I tried to enable this with
":set  
ballooneval", but it says "E518: Unknown option:
ballooneval".

Here's the version of Vim I'm using.

7.0 (2006 May 7, compiled May 8 2006 12:56:43)
MacOS X (unix) version

See how K is highlighted?  That means it's a tag you can
follow.
Press CTRL-] on it.

Apparently the Mac version doesn't support balloons. 
Hardly
surprising given the sorry state of GUI support.
