(I just saw this, so I apologize for the lag.)
To alter this behavior, you should use the OOP method to construct a Text::Textile object.
Then you would call:
$textile->char_encoding(0);
to disable the entity-izing. It will limit itself to just encoding less-than, greater-than and
quote characters.
If you're using the latest release, you can pass a "char_encoding => 0" parameter to the
constructor to accomplish the same thing.
