Support for rsync

14 years ago • updated by 14 years ago • 3

I work on development trees with thousands of files. The code revision system we use is Perforce. I use this great app to review code when travelling and commuting.

For me, the ideal would be to have the ability to sync the copy I have on my iPad with changes to the source tree checked out on my workstation. Rsync sounds like a nice solution since there are both Windows and UNIX servers that can be run on the workstation. Security is not an issue since the syncing would occur over the local office network or when connected from remote via VPN.

Create .h and .m file at once

14 years ago • 0

It would be cool if you can add a .h file and and a .m(m) file at one, with the same name. (e.g. this option only appears once you named your first file .h)

Perhaps the .m file could even automatically import the .h file.

Textastic is not interpreting quotes correctly when colouring the code.

14 years ago • updated by 14 years ago • 1

I am editing in PHP syntax mode but Textastic is not interpreting quotes correctly when colouring the code. A line like $sql="update COMPANY set name = '" . $name . "' "; will interpret the first single quote as closing the first double quote. See example below of this effect.

Must say that apart from this I think this product is fantastic and have been waiting for a stable code editor with SFTP support for years. Thankyou.

Downloading hundreds of files crashes the app

14 years ago • updated by 14 years ago • 5

I work with development trees that contain 1000s of files. If I try to download a folder that contains more than 400 files, the app crashes. The Transfer Progress dialog shows the number of files/folders that need to be downloaded and then it freezes for a bit and finally the app closes. This happens with connections to dropbox and to a WebDAV server.

I could fix this bug for Textastic 3.1.

There were a few issues at work here. The UI is now updated when you download a lot of files and I could fix a memory issue when directories are created.
