Subject: entities and spacing: (em|en)dash and arrow
Message-ID: <9e0f31700801040630l68e0eae7i61e3397d44d7cc1f@mail.gmail.com>

Hello,
I notice that these entities are defined like this:

  def emdash opts
    "&#8212;"
  end
  def endash opts
    "&#8211;"
  end
  def arrow opts
    "&#8594;"
  end

However, any space from the original markup is stripped, so "hello -- world"
becomes "hello&#8212;world". I've overridden the methods to deal with this:

  def emdash opts
    " &#8212; "
  end
  def endash opts
    " &#8211; "
  end
  def arrow opts
    " &#8594; "
  end

however, I'm not sure if this is the responsibility of the scanner after
all, for these three?

Subject: HTML handling in SuperRedCloth
Message-ID: <8A76B2E7-DA41-4557-B22E-2CFD221CCB50@jasongarber.com>

I'm having all kinds of fun trying to get HTML to work "properly" in  
SRC (mild sarcasm).  I'm still working on the problem, but wanted to  
run it by the group.

Currently, Textile2 lets you put in HTML as long as it's in the same  
block (i.e. no double-returns).

<ul>
   <li>You can put HTML code right in Textile.</li>
   <li>It will not insert a break between elements</li>
   <li>or wrap it all in a p tag.</li>
</ul>

But it won't let you
<div>
   This is one paragraph.

   This is another.
</div>

becomes
	<p><div>
   This is one paragraph.</p>

   This is another.
</div>


I think SRC should support this (I see it as pretty essential to the  
proper working of my CMS), but it's turning out to be a tough pattern  
to code!  I had something I thought was working pretty well, but then  
Johan S?rensen pointed out a problem if you have something like  
<em>asd</em> blabla or indeed even <em>something<em>.  SRC needs to  
be smart enough to know that EM tags need to be within P tags, but  
not to wrap LI tags in P tags.  And do things in DIV tags always need  
to be in Ps?  <div>sometext</div> is perfectly valid, too.

I'll keep working on it, but if you have thoughts on the subject,  
please share them!

Subject: A Simple Idea
Message-ID: <66e809970801181436j31ec7332n66d68a2b9d48a772@mail.gmail.com>

I had an idea to make the output of textile more meaningful and style-able,
by adding automatic divs.  I've made an example of what it would do:

http://nickretallack.ao.net/projects/redclothplus/

View Source on the RedClothPlus page to see what I'm aiming for, and try out
the various stylesheets to see some ideas of uses for this.  Of course,
there are a lot of other things you could do with this extra
section/id/class information.

Who likes this idea?  Could I get some advice as to what stage in the
program to add these rules?
