Sometimes you have a file you know is text burn don't have an app that handles it directly. Textastic should be one of the options to open it with similar to how iEditor will let you

I just bought Textastic for my ipad. I want to use it to edit plain text files, such as LaTeX documents with .tex extensions. My files are in Google drive, and while I can browse to the folder, the files with the .tex extension are grayed out and cannot be selected. What should I do to make .tex file (or any plain text file) recognizable to Textastic?

All files and directories are missing the first character. The app is essentially useless to me 😢

Part if code not getting syntax highlighted  if line number is enabled and wrap column set to 100 or more. This happens only after the first run of Textastic. 

Latest beta, "Bare" Textastic.

I would me honest - copying files to Textastic, I mean copying, not opening - is a huge pain in the ass. I overcome this only by "share to" button, when I need to copy .tmBundle files to Textastic iCloud folder, so it could be moved in proper folder inside Textastic.

Thanks!

no code completion for C++, and lack syntax for basic operations and structs.

I would have liked an update version from the old textastic instead of having to pay the full price again.

Add a file association for .tsx files so we can open react/typescript files from iCloud 

I pasted a bunch of lines that had a tab character at the beginning.  Each line started with a date.

I did a "Find" for "tab1" and replace with "1".  While it did replace, it also added a line feed after the "1".
