[textile] Does textile encode characters?

I always thought that textile encoded characters such as €, £, $, etc into their html entities or their numerical equivalents. Looking at the source of some txp websites I only see the characters and not their encoded entities. Was this always the case?

I can’t tell you if it was always the case but v2 doesn’t encode those characters and I haven’t added anything that does.

Hi Steve,

The question arises, when we publish articles should we be using their ASCI or html entities or is it OK just typing the symbols if utf8 is used?

Yes, using the Unicode characters as they are is just fine. Apart from possible target markup language’s reserved syntax characters, nothing needs to be converted to entities.
