A way to sync with the server to download only the changed files not the whole project
I would like a way to sync with servers and have it automatically update files and download files that have been changed. It is crucial for collaboration and even testing on the iPad.

Rendering PHP code
I downloaded this app as I'm learning PHP coding. Although I think this app is really useful, the fact that it cannot render PHP code correctly is disappointing. Is this going to be fixed anytime soon?

Be able to ignore dot files
It would be nice to have the option of ignoring dot files (like the .git directory) when downloading an entire directory.

Multiple line editor!
- A multiple line editor, similar to Silublime's ctrl+ select that allows to click on various lines or spces and write/delete at the same time. This feature would push Textastic to the top as the best portable working stations.
- Great job Alexander!

This is THE iOS code editor. Fantastic!
Just stopping by to let you know how much I LOVE this app. It's already THE de-facto code editor on iOS, but it's rapidly becoming a remarkable full-fledged IDE. Please keep the amazing updates coming, because nothing else on the App Store comes CLOSE to the amazing product you've got.

CIFS/SMB support for Windows and linux (via Samba)
Alongside the excellent Dropbox, SFTP and WebDAV support, it would be excellent to have a CIFS/SMB client built in so that we could directly connect to shared folders on Windows servers, and Samba shares on linux servers.
It might be possible to use the open source smbclient from the Samba guys as the basis of the implementation.

Better Syntax Highlighter
For some things like Markdown or Textile syntax or some uncommon language constructs (single quote in Lisp, triple quotes in Python), the current syntax highlighter isn't really suitable.
I think I found a solution that will add excellent syntax highlighting with theme support and eventually also support for code completion. It will probably take some time to implement though.

The new highlighter is now in Textastic 3.0 and supports TextMate syntax definitions and themes.
