Does the localhost server for the html preview in Safari always use the same port?  This is required by the same origin policy if a website stores data in local storage, indexeddb, cache storage, etc. and wants to retrieve it later.  I noticed that Working Copy uses a different port with each preview, making testing javascript single page apps that utilize data storage impossible and was wondering if Textastic had a way to always use the same port when previewing html/js.

I wanna have snippets like TextMate, it’s possible

Hello

Your iOS editor is amazing and by far the best in iOS.

I was wandering if it would be possible to support a “Distraction Free Mode”, similar to what Sublime has in macOS. I use Textastic for Latex writing in iOS and would be perfect if you could limit the max column size allowed and keep the text in the middle of the screen.

Thank you

Currently I edit HTML on my iPad split view and open the same Dropbox file in textastic and Dropbox and use Dropbox to see a live refresh of what I’m doing. It’s great but not perfect as there is a delay. Would be nice if textastic could do both, as it merely shows a preview in full screen. Thanks!

Have I missed it, or is there no way to edit files on iCloud Drive (except in the Textastic folder)? so much on Macs is now stored/mirrored in iCloud it would be very helpful to edit them in place. 

I would love you to add a function to the find and replace option. Add the option to find and replace in all open docs. For ipad Pro 12.9 iOS11.1
That would almost make this app perfect.

Please support the Column Mode Editing. Thank you.

When zooming text with the pinching gesture with two fingers, it should automatically adjust text position to match the screen edges and automatically reflow text to fit them. This is specially important on iPhone, as the screen space is very limited. It could be an option in the settings, to allow both ways. 

The desired behaviour can be found, for instance, in an app named Permanote (formerly Nebulous Notes). You pinch the screen and the text adjusts its size and fits the screen, fowing in realtime.

It would be good if Textastic supported moving the text viewport up and down via the external keyboard, in effect moving the line with the cursor up and down the screen. I feel it's pretty common to do with when working with text, and it's very annoying to not be able to do it.

The recent files list is great, and I use it all the time. It would also be great if there was a similar feature—recents or favorites—in the File Transfer view, for quickly going to oftenused local & remote folders.
