An option to turn off line numbers

Jan Rychter 14 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 14 years ago 0
Line numbers make an editor look cool, but their practical utility is near zero — no one uses them for anything except perhaps when dealing with bug reports. They do consume precious screen real estate, especially in vertical mode, and I can see less code because of them.

I'd like to see a preferences option to keep them permanently turned off, so that I can see more code on screen. An option, so that we could switch them on sometimes if needed.

PS: I *love* Textastic!

Different file icons

anonymous 13 years ago in General 0

I have a suggestion: Make files written in different languages have different file icons! The current icon is perfect for HTML/XML/etc, but not for languages like Java.

Support local links to "external" files opened with iCloud Drive

Maurice Zoliker 10 years ago in General updated by Colin Wirt 10 years ago 7
Hello,

I think it would be very clever to add the possibility to "save" in local files a link to an external file opened with iCloud Drive.

Using "Recent files" is a temporary fix, but having symlink-like entries in Textastic's local files (maybe with some sort of icon or different color) would clearly help me not to constantly reopen the same files from my repositories stored in Working Copy (via "Open...").

And if the file no longer exists, just display a popup and remove the link.

What do you think of this? Am I missing an obvious solution?

Thank you for your response.

Kind regards,
Maurice

sudo for certain files

Leonardo Galli 10 years ago in General updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 10 years ago 1
I sometimes need to change for example the php.ini file, but I disabled the root login via ssh. So I would like to see an option like "upload with sudo" overwriting the existing file and prompting password / touch id.

Faster folder selection when moving or copying files

Alexander Blach (Developer) 14 years ago updated by j_w 13 years ago 1
Move of files with file structure: Currently one sees a list of all folders if he wants to move a file.

The problem: the number of folder is meanwhile quite long and it takes some time to scroll down.

Possible solutions: do not expand all the folders just show expandable folders. Or faster scroll down.

Compressed tarball tar.gz support needed

Kevleyski 11 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 11 years ago 0
Whilst zip support is appreciated, converting tar.gz and tar.bz2 is tricky on iPhone, adding support to just import tarball file directly would be great
