Here's the kind of standalone test I was thinking of.

----- 8< -------------------------------------------------
require 'rubygems'
require 'uv'
require 'redcloth'

snip = DATA.read
code = Uv.parse(snip, 'xhtml', 'ruby', false, 'twilight')
code.insert(0, "<notextile>")
code.insert(code.length, "</notextile>")
puts RedCloth.new(code).to_html

__END__
puts "Hello world!\n"
puts "Hello\\one backslash"
----- 8< -------------------------------------------------

And for me the output it gives is:

<pre class="twilight">puts <span class="String"><span 
class="String">&quot;</span>Hello world!<span 
class="StringConstant">\n</span><span 
class="String">&quot;</span></span>
puts <span class="String"><span class="String">&quot;</span>Hello<span 
class="StringConstant">\\</span>one backslash<span 
class="String">&quot;</span></span>
</pre>

This looks correct to me. So can you provide an example where it fails? 
Otherwise you need to look elsewhere in your application to see if 
you're providing the wrong input into Uv, or you're handling the output 
wrongly.

Or maybe you have an old gem with a bug which has since been fixed. I'm 
using:

ultraviolet (0.10.2)
RedCloth (4.2.2)
