addition to x-callback-url

Sven 7 years ago in iPad • 0

the current list of actions that x-callback-url supports is sufficient, apart from the lack of one that return the contents of a specified file. would that be a feature to be considered?

while we're on the topic of automation/app-interaction, would Textastic be adding support for custom Shortcuts actions?

Add File/Folder Path Field

a1534286 7 years ago in iPad • 0

Basically what I'm suggesting is that the new file/folder dialog box be modified to have a path field. This field would allow those of us with a keyboard on our iPads to type out the path to the new file relative to the directory we're currently browsing. It also recursively creates all the folders that do not exist in order to create the file/folder. I have to create files quite frequently and having to navigate up and down the folder structure while also having to select whether it is a file or folder and then name it take much longer than it should. If I have to create 25 files and the folders they go in I've just wasted nearly a minute of time just creating the files. Now, that doesn't sound like much but eventually that number grows into hours and days. Never mind the fact that I haven't actually programmed anything yet.

Stuttered typing with Secure ShellFish File Provider Extension

Nitin 7 years ago in iPad • updated 7 years ago • 3

After installing iPadOS 13.1, when editing a document picked from the Secure ShellFish file provider extensions, the typing stutters quite a bit. There are noticeable pauses between keypresses quite often. I am not sure whether this is related to the extension or to Textastic but starting here.

Keyboard can’t enter a valid character

The correct single quotation mark cannot be entered though the Bluetooth keyboard?

I must use it(in the picture).

SyntaxError: Unexpected identifier 'entered'. Expected ')' to end an argument list.

Incorrect menu heading and options for Line Endings

Nitin 7 years ago in iPad • updated 7 years ago • 4

While editing a Markdown file, when I tap on the "file" icon and choose "Line Endings", the heading at the top of the menu says "Choose Character Encoding" instead. And the incorrect option ("Windows (CRLF)") is shown as selected even though the actual value chosen on the previous screen is "Unix (LF)". 

Please see the two attached screenshots for more details.

Thanks, I can confirm the bug. I’ll try to find out how this could happen.

Attempting to use SSH Terminal only shows a blank white screen.

nye678 7 years ago in iPad • updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 7 years ago • 3

I am trying to use the SSH terminal feature but when the terminal tab opens it just shows a blank white screen. There are no error messages presented. And it doesn’t seem to matter if the host information is correct or not.

I wasn’t able to find any posts on this and the manual makes it appear fairly straight forward to use. But I am a new user of the app so it is possible that I am completely missing something.

Unnamed draft files, “hot exit”

fefrei 7 years ago in iPad • updated 7 years ago • 2

Thanks for making Textastic!

I'm currently missing support for one workflow. On my PC, I use Sublime Text, and I often use it for quick notes, or to prepare text that I'm going to copy-and-paste somewhere else. This is very convenient because of a combination of three simple features or design choices: Sublime Text doesn't ask me for a file name when creating a file, keeping the file in an unnamed-unsaved state. When exiting Sublime Text, these files don't trigger a save prompt, they simply auto-save and a reload on the next launch. And finally, when closing a tab, Sublime Text will prompt to save, but only if there is content – allowing you to close a file where you cut out all content very quickly.


Currently, in Textastic, this feels more cumbersome, starting with creating a new file, which forces me to pick a name. This has resulted in a few files named tmp1, tmp2, … in my local files folder, which is ugly. I'd love a be able to create unnamed temporary files more quickly.

Please add a feature that can save file in the local ipad storage.

sophanarith 7 years ago in iPad • updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 7 years ago • 1

As the new IOS 13 will allow user to access to local storage of the ipad and support USB thumb drive or External SSD. As the result, the users will be able to copy out their file from the ipad storage on the USB key.
