I sent a pull request to the GitHub “radiant” user, but I’m not sure  
that goes anywhere just yet.

I have whipped up a quick and simple patch to allow you set a default  
filter for pages. On a freshly bootsrapped intance, you will see a new  
value on the config table named “defaults.page.filter”. Its blank by  
default. Setting that to any one of:

- Textile
- Markdown
- SmartyPants

Will cause all new pages to have that filter selected by default.  
Handy. Anyone else want to +1 this if they find it useful?

Alex (et al),

Pull requests to the ‘radiant’ user will go to me for now, through an  
email alias. They tell me they will have “group” accounts soon,  
primarily for the open-source projects. In the meantime you can send  
pull requests to any of:

- radiant
- seancribbs
- jlong
- jfrench
- mislav
- lorenjohnson
- aiwilliams
