RedCloth full textile support?

I’m trying to use the redcloth gem to do textile markup.

It works, but doesn’t seem to support the full set of markup.

For example trying a few examples from:
Textile Quick Reference which is linked to from _why?s
Redcloth page http://whytheluckystiff.net/ruby/redcloth/

require ‘rubygems’
require ‘redcloth’

class String
def textilize
RedCloth.new(self).to_html
end
end

“bold italic”.textilize # => “

bold
italic

”
“.h1 Heading”.textilize # => “

.h1 Heading

”

So a few things seems to work but many more don’t.

Is there something I’m missing?

Perhaps:
irb> “h1. Heading”.textilize
=> “

Heading

”

Not “.h1” but “h1.” does a heading.
