ok, mebbe i’m just plain stupid.
i have an existing site or two with static html that i want to move over
to a redcloth-supported site, so my annoying clients can maintain their
own content on their oft-changing pages.
surely someone somewhere has written an html-\>redcloth conversion
method? no doubt it’s in class RedCloth and called something esoteric
like new\_from\_html or something, but i’ll be blitzed if i can find it.
any suggestions? =) thanks…mike

I think that it’s still under development, but you might try ClothRed
