Jay, thanks for your detailed description of the steps you followed. I

If you first save the file to a "something.rb" file name, then
indenting should work properly for you. Currently the plugin is using
the file extension to determine if the file is "ruby" or not. I'll fix
it to also look at the buffer options setting in a future release.
Thanks for the feedback!
Cheers,
Rob
