#{content}
#{content}
 or  that passes
it through, but actually strips out the textile markup glyphs so
something like

*word*

ends up just being

word

in the output?

thanks.

No, not currently.  You could write a plain text formatter like the  
HTML formatter in (the forthcoming) RedCloth 4.0.  Then you rewrite  
the methods so it passes through the text you want but doesn't add HTML.

If you want to hack on it, fork the project on github and let me know  
when you have something interesting.

Out of curiousity, what are you using this for?

The site I'm working on has a batch email function and I'd like the user 
to be able to user Textile for creating their HTML formatted email. 
However, I've set up action mailer to do multipart emails in case 
recipient is on a plain text client. So, for the HTML mailer template I 
use the .to_html output for the body text, and for the plain text mailer 
template I want to strip out the markup.

Right now I'm just sending through the marked up text, which isn't 
horrible if you keep it simple, but links, for instance, really come 
through badly.

Thanks for the input.

Okay, that's what I suspected.  I have had that need at times too.   
Maybe it would be nice, instead of just outputting the text with no  
formatting, to do a little plain text formatting exclusively for  
human consumption (unlike Textile or Markdown).  Like:

Header 1
=======

This is a link (http://code.whytheluckystiff.net/redcloth) and  
perhaps some *bold* text.

Now, you specifically *didn't* want the asterisks around bold  
phrases, didn't you?  What do you think?

Not so much _I_ didn't want the asterisks, but client does not like the 
output that way.

I think I see what you're getting at, though - would this be a matter of 
setting up custom RedCloth rules to apply the "plain text" formatting 
they want to end up with, and then perhaps a custom method to apply 
those rules instead of the normal ones, such as ".to_plain_formatted"?

Exactly.  See the LaTeX formatter someone added and do likewise.

Coolio - will start working on that. Thanks for your help.
