Ben,
RedCloth is the Ruby library Radiant uses to format Textile.
Unfortunately, the latest release 3.0.4 is notoriously awful. The
upcoming release, 4.0, adheres to the official Textile 2 reference
exactly, including the line breaks you speak of. I recommend you
give the pre-release testing gem a try.
$ gem install RedCloth --source http://code.whytheluckystiff.net
(Note that RedCloth is camel case.) Make sure it's working by
opening up irb and typing RedCloth::VERSION and noting the version
number is higher than 3.0.4.
That alone probably won't work for your Radiant install because
Radiant includes RedCloth in the vendor directory rather than
allowing it to be loaded from gems. You either have to remove that
directory or, if you're using Radiant in instance mode, add this hack
to the environment.rb file after the require 'boot' and before the
require 'radius'.
# *** hack to get RedCloth out of vendor ****
$:.reject! {|p| p =~ /vendor\/redcloth/ }
Then check that it's installed properly by starting Radiant's
console: ./script/console and typing RedCloth::VERSION.
RedCloth 4.0 will probably be released by May 1.

guys might know the answer.
I just set up a fresh 0.66 installation and am using Textile to format
the pages I write.
Everything is working wonderfully except that line breaks do not
generate "<br />" tags. Instead, they simply make a new line in the
HTML
code. Example:
Paragraph one.
Paragraph
two.
...should render:
<p>Paragraph one</p>
<p>Paragraph<br />two</p>
...instead, it renders:
<p>Paragraph one</p>
<p>Paragraph
two</p>
Is this a recent change in Textile or something Radiant-specific?
On the
"Textile Tryout" page (http://www.textism.com/tools/textile/index.php)
it DOES insert the "<br />" tag. However on the "Textile Reference"
page
(http://hobix.com/textile/) under "Line Breaks", the author seems
to say
that "<br />" is no longer part of the functionality.
Have any of you guys had problems with this?
