I'm following this tutorial but it keeps failing saying "undefined method `new' for Redcarpet:Module". I have gem "redcarpet" in my Gemfile. The piece of code that is failing:
Redcarpet.new(@post.content).to_html

Just a quick sanity check... you ran 'bundle install' after changing your gemfile, right? – IAmNaN Dec 27 '11 at 18:45

Okay, it looks like Redcarpet 2 has completely changed the API. The following works:
markdown = Redcarpet::Markdown.new(Redcarpet::Render::HTML,
:autolink => true, :space_after_headers => true)
raw markdown.render(@post_content.content)

8+1 I prefer to use `markdown.render(@post_content.content).html_safe` which also works. Not a fan of using `raw` anymore. – Substantial Feb 05 '12 at 16:00
