Has anyone had any experience with RedCloth for rails. It is a textile system. I haven''t spot checked the code and was wondering if it caused any lockups or other issues. http://whytheluckystiff.net/ruby/redcloth/ -- Berlin Brown (ramaza3 on freenode) http://www.newspiritcompany.com also checkout alpha version of botverse: http://www.newspiritcompany.com:8086/universe_home

I doubt you will have any difficulties with it. It is very mature as far as Ruby libraries go. -- John Long http://wiseheartdesign.com
I take it back - I do have some problems with RedCloth. I''ve been importing a lot of test and hyphens and asterisks trip up the text. For example: ROR-Ruby on Rails-1.1 is near blah blah blah * * * * * blah blah blah The first results in a strike-through; the second often in an open bold tag. But, the text I''ve been importing is kind of wacky, and these are pretty trivial which can be cleaned up manually. Joe -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I''m sure he wouldn''t mind a few failing test cases that reproduce the problem you are experiencing. :-) -- John Long http://wiseheartdesign.com
There is one issue with Redcloth to be aware of before you start (from the wiki): "If you you are using Rails v1.0, make sure you are using RedCloth 3.0.3 instead of 3.0.4. You can then use textilize() correctly. See below for what happens if you don?t do this You can do this by running gem install redcloth --version "3.0.3" gem uninstall redcloth --version "3.0.4" " basically hard_breaks don''t quite work properly if you don''t follow this advice. otherwise, splendid! dorian Berlin Brown wrote:> Has anyone had any experience with RedCloth for rails.
