Syntax highlighting for Tcl

Kristoffer Lawson 12 years ago in iPad updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 12 years ago 1

Hi, in your list of languages Tcl is mentioned as a supported language. However upon opening up a file it does not appear to do any syntax highlighting for the language. Ie. it does not seem to be supported after all?


Also for something like editing on an iPad, auto-indent would be a very highly requested feature.

Working on dropbox file deploy with ftp when done.

Dahaka101 10 years ago in iPad updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 10 years ago 1
I work on my site in my public dropbox folder. So I download the files locally edit them and then upload them again to see results online. So if the work is good and I want to deploy it to the we server, how do I do that? Currently the upload button only does it with the dropbox, how can I take a file that I downloaded from dropbox and upload it to an ftp server?
Answer
You need to go to the Remote Transfer screen again using the "globe" button. Then you connect to your FTP server, navigate to your target folder and select the local file on the left side. Tap on the Upload button to upload the file to your FTP server.

You only need to do this once per file. From now on, Textastic will save both the Dropbox and the FTP remote location and asks you which one you want to use when you use the quick upload feature ("Upload This File"): http://www.textasticapp.com/v5/manual/lessons/How_can_I_quickly_upload_downloaded_files.html

A critical app for iPad

Ted Chew 11 years ago in iPad updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 11 years ago 1
I purchased Textastic for the iPad recently and it has already paid for itself in terms of allowing me to code on go. I love that it supports custom TextMate bundles, since I work with some pretty obscure languages for embedded systems. The local hierarchical file system with WebDAV support and links to remote content is wonderful! It is just what I was looking for and I have recommended it to others at work who have been sitting on the fence about buying a tablet due to their apparent limitations. Apple should thank you for coming out with such a capable editor!
Answer
Thank you very much! I really appreciate it.

Automatically FTP files to the original folder from which is was downloaded

Nigel 10 years ago in iPad updated 10 years ago 1

Another of my failings is to forget I've changed destinationfolder and FTP into the wrong place on my server then spend a while trying to work out why my latest change isn't working.

Keyboard bug

Fed 11 years ago in iPad updated 11 years ago 2

Recently I've found the keyboard doesn't appear when in portrait view. It also happens in landscape, but less frequently. This renders the app useless, unfortunately, because I love it. You have to close the app, and restart it. Quite time consuming.

Please fix.

Can't make FTP connection, and WebDEV connection doesn't work as expected

Deborahs 11 years ago in iPad updated by Deborah Schmidt 11 years ago 5
I setup an FTP connection using an IP address to a server a I have in my office. I know this works because I have a other workstations/laptops connecting just fine. This is a development server. I can also connect from my IPAD using Safari. I just can not connect through Textastic. There is nothing fancy - no username/password, no ssl, port 21, passive mode. The logs show nothing but can not connect to IPADDRESS.

When set to WebDAV - the server appears to work, except it will not show PHP files live - just the code. It does show the HTML files live. I tried to upload files to the clould and they ended up local. Even though it said they were being copied to the cloud.

Do you have more detail documentation somewhere? Or some fixes that address these issues. I just purchased this software.

Thanks
