Hi, I would like to be able to make edits on the remote version of the file so as soon I press save, the file on the remote is updated. And every time I open the file (while navigating in the remote directory), it fetches it from the remote server. I feel like that would be more efficient for me than making local copies and keeping them in sync.

Let me know what you think about this.

Thanks. 

Amazing app BTW.

Hi,

Since there is already the option to sync remote files to a local device, is it possible to add the option to ssh into a remote folder and edit those files directly?

It would be awesome if the current SSH options stay they way they are, so you can run shell commands on the server, but in addition to be able to edit files without having to sync them first.

Thanks :-)

I would love to see Multicursor functionality similar to the one available in Sublime, Atom or VSCode. They improve productivity a lot and save a lot of double/triple typing or search and replace processes.

The new Files app in iOS is the all-in-one place for file managers and it’d make it really easy to transfer files.

Currently the preview button is tied to a file. It would be cool if there was a browser you can view and hide any time from Textastic, regardless of which file you were editing on, it would be showing that same file you loaded onto that browser.

My use case:
I'm currently building an app on AngularJS (The perfect language for Textastic, since there's nothing but Javascript, HTML and CSS). My app works from index.html only, with the javascript files pulling everything else, so when I edit another HTML file, the only way I can test it is to go back to index.html, preview it, then find the file I was editing earlier to make changes.

So if there was an independent browser, I could load it to point to index.html, and regardless which file I was editing, I could pull up the browser that's showing that file and back again immediately.

Thanks for the great work with Textastic by the way! I really really love it! Especially now that I'm working on an AngularJS app!
