Tap to follow links and includes (MediaWiki, et-al)

mabs 2 years ago in General updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 2 years ago 1

I've been using Textastic + Working Copy as my personal notes app on iOS for a couple of months, on my desktop pc I edit my files in neovim and use vimwiki. Syntax support is close to MediaWiki, but any additional syntax support would be awesome as well.

My main suggestion: I was wondering if following links could be added. Feature might need some tweaking to not introduce unexpected behaviour, so maybe a second tap to confirm a link follow. This feature could also be extended to html, including opening associated css and other linked content, and while I think about it, source code includes and imports like include "code.h" and import banana, or from banana import skin. Some links might need hints to follow links, for example MediaWiki links would not include the .wiki extension; Python could be interesting in searching for banana.py and banana/__init__.py.

I would think in most cases only the text that applies to the linking would be active, like code.h and banana in the above examples. UI clues could just be an underline of some type. When a link can't be followed, I would think the software simply doing nothing (other than potentially adjusting the cursor location) and not notifying the user is better.


Linking it external content, like triggering a web browser is in the realm of nice to have; and also recognising a URI and triggering from there could also be useful.

Reload files

Mark11423 2 years ago in General updated 2 years ago 11

When I use git integration with working copy, and it updates a text file in the git repository, sometimes Textastic doesn't reload the file for ages, when they were already open in Textastic. Is there a better way to reload the updated files?

I need to close the file and reopen it to ensure that the updated file contents have been displayed in textastic.

Answer

This should be fixed in Textastic 10.0.3 which was just released. It contains a workaround for this iOS bug. 

Thanks for reporting this issue!

It would be very helpful when searching in a document, to display the total number of matches found.

Could you please add powerQuery code highlighting. This would help a lot.

Add option to convert text encodings. For example to read chinese files (GB18030) you need to convert to unicode (UTF-8).

Add option to convert text encodings. For example to read chinese (GB18030) you need to convert to unicode (UTF-8).

Currently changing the encoding settings from the info panel does not convert the encoding of the file.

Answer

Tap and hold a file and choose "Open with Encoding..." from the menu to select the encoding with which to open the file. 

This is described in the manual at https://www.textasticapp.com/v9/manual/viewing_editing_files/character_encoding.html
