    Are you sure it's in ruby-mode when you're editing?

    I'm no expert but I've got this in my .emacs which look like it might
    help you:

    ;;; FONT-LOCK COLOURS
    (cond ((fboundp 'global-font-lock-mode)
            ;; TURN ON FONT-LOCK IN ALL MODES THAT SUPPORT IT
            (global-font-lock-mode t)
            ;; MAXIMUM COLORS
            (setq font-lock-maximum-decoration t)))
