Hello,

I’ve been digging in the RedCloth code to add CodeRay support. CodeRay  
is a  
nice syntax highlighter. Adding CodeRay support is really nice to do add  
ruby example in blog posts.

RedCloth seems to support a ` tag and I tought that I could
intercept
the code’s content and pass it trough CodeRay. I’ve checked lots of
places
but somehow I’m not able to find the right place to do my cooking.`

Please help me ! I’m getting crazy about that problem ! :-p

For the sake of google (seeing that this post is on the top of a google  
query for ‘redcloth coderay’, I’m posting here even though the thread is  
2 years old.

I made a plugin for Rails that adds a -tag. See docs and tests  
for more info. Can easily be extracted for use outside of Rails.
