Make underscore part of a word

Jakob Heitz 14 years ago updated by richardbaxter 3 years ago 1
When you tap a word, select handles appear around the word. However, if the word includes an underscore character, it is considered as a word delimiter.

This would be easier than setting a high wrap column number.

Please associate .xslt with xsl syntax definition so it will be recognized by other apps in "open with". Or feature manual extension of list of file extensions per syntax definition.

arrow keys

Felix 15 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 14 years ago 3
First of all your app is awesome! Perhaps you could implement arrow keys. I personally don't like selecting a caracter by taping on it. Right and left arrow keys would be fine.

Syntax Highlighting for yaml

Harald Lapp 15 years ago 0
it would be nice, if textastic would support syntax highlighting for yaml files -- see http://www.yaml.org/

Which programming or markup languages do you use most often with Textastic?

Alexander Blach (Developer) 14 years ago updated 3 years ago 62
To better support your needs, it would be nice if you could tell me which languages you view or edit the most in Textastic.

If something is missing on this list, please add a comment and I'll add it as an option.

What's new in Textastic 3.0?

Alexander Blach (Developer) 14 years ago updated 14 years ago 11

Major new features:

  • Re-implemented the code editor and syntax highlighting engine from the ground up. The new engine is compatible with TextMate syntax definitions and themes.
  • You can choose from many popular themes
  • New symbol list shows symbols in the current file (for example function and class names, html ids, markdown headlines...)
  • The new syntax highlighter supports nested syntaxes (CSS in HTML in a PHP file)
  • Markdown syntax highlighting
  • You can now use your own custom syntax definitions and themes (this is explained in the manual)
  • You can now bring up a list of recently opened files by tapping on the file name. This allows to quickly switch between several files. There's also a button that allows you to close the currently open file.
  • Full support for Japanese text and other wide characters

NOTE: Because of a change that was necessary in this version, you'll have to re-enter all passwords for your connections after you install the update. Sorry for that.


Other changes:

  • Added modification time in file listings
  • Added a redo button
  • Added more character encodings
  • New "Copy All" command to copy the contents of the current file
  • CSS styles in Markdown are now used for preview
  • When you do a quick file transfer, you can disable the overwrite confirmation prompt. You can also re-enable the confirmation in the app's settings screen.
  • Row of additional keys is now shown in Find/Replace
  • TextExpander support in Find/Replace
  • If you manually select a syntax definition for a file, this is used as the default for all files with the file's extension (this helps with .h files, which can be C++, C or Objective-C)

Connections:

  • Added ipv6 support for (S)FTP connections
  • Fixed some WebDAV issues
  • WebDAV: support for self-signed ssl certificates
  • FTPS/FTPES: "SSL Mode": you can now require SSL only for the control connection or for all communication
  • FTP: empty files (0 bytes) can now be downloaded
  • FTP: You can now set the maximum amount of concurrent connections for FTP connections
Version 3.0

Textastic 3.0 is now available on the App Store.
