I strongly recommend to use the RetroMarkup instead of Textile, Markdown or RDoc. Textile, Markdown and RDoc are vulnerable to code injection attacks since they do not provide any built-in protection facilities, therefore these are only tolerable for non-public installations.

I have created RetroMarkup with a strong focus on compensation of the mentioned security risk, and by the way, it uses a very simple and intuitive syntax, combining the best features of other markup languages [personal opinion]. Please give it a try!
