can textastic read .java files?

Joshua Smith 13 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 13 years ago 1
I am working with a lot of .java files. I wanted to fine a nice text editor, similar to notepad ++ for the ipad that would allow me to edit .java files and then upload them back to an ide, like netbeans, without having any syntax problems. Can texttastic do this?

JADE or HAML syntax highlighting rules

Kyle Mueller 14 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 13 years ago 6
Would it be possible to get syntax highlighting for Jade? It's based on HAML. So you may be able to do both at the same time? Ref: https://github.com/visionmedia/jade

iCloud Nested folders

Joshua Hernandez 12 years ago updated by はいあっと 11 years ago 6

Hello,


Textastic is a great app and I love using it. Now with the recent addition of iCloud support there is a seamless syncing of files which I am a fan of. I don't even have to push the files myself! The only downside to putting things on iCloud is the inability to make a folder within a folder. I'm guessing that this is a limitation of iCloud, but my organization of files would greatly benefit with even just one more layer of nested folders when using iCloud. I don't work on any large projects, so I can just make numerous top level folders if I really want to continue using the built-in iCloud support. Though is there a possibility of this being implemented? 


Keep up the great work. 

Thanks,

Josh

Code tagging support

Valery Vorotyntsev 11 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 11 years ago 1
Code tagging support will transform this excellent app into an ultimate tool of choice of any iPad-wielding programmer.
GNU GLOBAL (http://www.gnu.org/software/global/) is really good; its «locate not only definitions but also references» feature is particularly useful. It would be a huge win if Textastic app supported it.
Thank you, guys, you are the best!

Add a simple directory tree/breadcrumb

db2 13 years ago updated 13 years ago 0
Add a basic directory/path viewer to show (and navigate to) all parents of the currently selected directory, up to the root directory. Perhaps make it like the recent files viewer, i.e. tap the current directory name to open. I have some sites that can go 10+ directories deep; it's quite easy to get lost.

Easy Template creation

Aloha,

Could you implement an easy way to make a collection of text files into a template? If not in Textastic as a droppable AppleScript in OSX?


Mahalo,

Does textastic support UTF-8 without BOM?

Matthias Wrase 13 years ago updated 13 years ago 2
For my Chinese website it is mandatory to save the language files as "UTF-8 without BOM" . The BOM characters must be omitted. They will confuse my application (OXID eShop). So far I did not find an editor for the iPad which omits the "BOM".Does textastic Support "UTF-8 without BOM" or just "UTF-8"?I did not find a list of supported character encodings in the manual.
Thanks in advance,
Matthias

.command files are shell scripts on OS X

Brian M (tech4789) 11 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 11 years ago 2
On OS X, and executable shell script can also have the extension ".command". This isn't detected in the current version of the app and would be nice to not have to manually choose shell script.

Tab widths other than 4 don't work with space input

Richard Brooksby 13 years ago updated 13 years ago 5

Set tab width to anything othe than 4. Open a news document. Press space repeatedly. Note cursor jumps left or right after 4 spaces. Switch on soft tabs for other bizarre effects. Especially annoying when trying to line up columns in code!
