Without mappings:

    " keep cursor in same column
    :set nostartofline
    " global, also has influence on other commands

    " how many lines to scroll
    :set scroll=1
    " local to window

Then use Ctrl-D and Ctrl-U.  A count changes the value of 'scroll'.

Don't miss the help:
    :h 'sol
    :h 'scr

What I would do for the rails stuff (and what I actually do for
Template Toolkit w/ perl) is use abbreviations.  For example:

:ab RLS <% %>^]hhi
:ab RL= <%= %>^]hhi

That way when you type RLS(space) it will put you inside the brackets
automatically.  Note: the ^] is a literal, so to type it you need to
do <C-v><Esc>.
