Increase Undo Capacity

VILLMER 4 years ago in iPad updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 4 years ago 1

I literally use Textastic every day for a huge amount of work (iPad Pro). It is, by far, the best coding tool I’ve used.

When coding, however, one of the most fundamental things is being able to undo a lot of test work. I don’t know what the current undo level is but it’s not anywhere close enough. I would, at least,  provide an option to increase the step number. To 50, 100, 500… whatever the memory will allow.


Thanks.

Is there any chance of adding GitHub markdown support include:


* todo lists

* code syntax highlighting in the preview

Also might be cool to have different preview themes.

SendCode from Editor to Terminal. Shortcut for this?

rmbowers 5 years ago in iPad updated 5 years ago 2

Wonderful software! I am having fun leaning to use my ipad as an alternative to my macpro for some computing.

Question: How to implement two Sublime Text 3 packages, "SendCode" and "SublimeREPL"

Purpose: (of which there may already be a shortcut for) would be to highlight a block of text in an editor (usually R or Python), then use some shortcut (Cmd + E) to send code to the currently open terminal. Is this already possible? If not, would there be a way to use specifically the SendCode package for Sublime Text 3 in Textastic? I have already copied the two SendCode and SublimeREPL directories to my #Textastic directory, but have run Reload Customizations, but to no avail. I can get theme files to work properly, but am not able to correctly implement Sublime packages. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Add cursor navigation wheel to SSH Terminal

matthew 5 years ago in iPad 0

Please add your cursor navigation wheel (text selection not required), to the SSH Terminal, or add better arrow keys.  Would make using a SSH terminal editor much easier, especially if you aren’t using an external keyboard.

Built-in Javascript tmLanguage

Maurice Zoliker 5 years ago in General updated 5 years ago 2

Dear Alexander,

I really need the built-in "JavaScript.tmLanguage" you are using, in order to know the exact scopes names (to use them in my custom tmTheme) and be able to tweak it a bit if needed.

Would it be possible to share it?

Right now I am using the "JavaScriptNext.tmLanguage" but it is quite old and full of little bugs, whereas your built-in tmLanguage seems to be much more stable and recent.

Thanks a lot and keep improving Textastic, it is a pleasure to use it every day.

Kind regards,

Maurice

Answer

To show the scope at the cursor location, you can use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl-Shift-P (this can be changed in Textastic's settings -> Keyboard Shortcuts -> Code Editor -> Show Scope).

Here is the sublime syntax file used by Textastic:

JavaScript.sublime-syntax

One file two views?

Sasmito Adibowo 5 years ago in iPad updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 4 years ago 2

How to open the same file in two different views?

I have a long-ish file that I’d like to edit simultaneously in two different editors. Each editor would be looking at different parts of the file.

Every time I “open in new window” of the file, the current editor closes and being replaced by a new one.
