Textile Formatter and quotes

I don’t know how one gets normal apostrophes and quotation marks to work out right in Textile (using Textile4J 1.20). It tries to do the elegant slanty quotes, but seems very easily confused about parity and nesting.

In the last posting, notice how the initial apostrophe is slanted backward and that some of the slant choices on the remaining quotation marks are just wrong.

UPDATE 1/26/05: It appears this is Textile4j-specific. The online generator at textism doesn’t exhibit these problems at all. I’ve filed an issue with textile4j
