Textastic on iOS11 does not allow to open files from WorkingCopy

thomas vogelpohl 8 years ago updated 8 years ago 3

Hi, before iOS11 Beta, I used to open WorkingCopy repos with the "Open ..." Menu.

On iOS11 the Open  menu now opens the new Apple App "Files". In Files you can pick WorkingCopy again, but the PopUp with the WorkingCopy repos does not contain a Pick button, so I can not open the repo in Textastic. Same procedure works in GoCoEdit.

Support for per file search with retain of scrolling of the search result

puccet 8 years ago in General 0

It woukd be great to have per file search features, i have ioften to search different things in different files but related, for example occurrences for tag in log files and then timestamp of the found tag in another data file, but when switching between files the search feature is shared so i have to insert again the search any time, even worst when switching the search results list is always scrolled back to top it would be great if it retain the scrolled position and show the line numbers of the found string.

navigation stack so after a search or other jump i can jump back to original locations via stack

anonymous 8 years ago 0

say i am looking at file.c:49 and i search for symbol x in the file and jump sroumd to random occurrences, I would like the ability to jump back through each jump. Lets say occurences i view in order are file.c:10 then file.c:200.


The featre request would be a button or shortcut (maybe cmd + [, ]) that would take me through the stack in the following way:


from current position: file.c:200

hit back, end up at: file.c:10

hit back, end up at: file.c:49

hit back, stack empty, noop


this would extend to multiple searches and across files. you have to handle files edited between traverals of history, but just document the behavior.

Add custom emmet snippets to Textastic on iOS

Dave 8 years ago updated 8 years ago 2

I'd like to add some custom Emmet snippets to Textastic on iOS, but I can't make it work.


I tried following the directions on Emmet's site for adding the file (https://docs.emmet.io/customization/snippets/), but I'm not sure where to put it. I've added the snippets.json file to #Textastic, but it won't take.


Is it possible to use this file right now? Does it need to go in a subfolder of #Textastic?

"Workflow" app - integration

Cecil Ward 8 years ago in General updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 8 years ago 1

I would love it if you could look into exploring ways for more integration with the Workflow iOS app. Could you maybe think about possibilities? I would like to be able to get access to my Textastic documents from within Workflow scripts, and I would also like to be able to automate opening Textastic with particular files passed by Workflow and passing edited files back into Workflow. That way I could use Textastic as part of a task automation.


Any ideas?


Best,


Cecil Ward

Emmet interferes with emacs key bindings

textastic 8 years ago in General updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 8 years ago 4

I have emacs in my manual reflexes. The emmet use of Ctrl-A and Ctrl-E means I can't use those emacs actions now. I don't use emmet, so could there be a setting to completely turn off emmet so it doesn't interfere with those keystrokes? Thanks

Slow editing of tidied code: have you heard from Apple yet?

Albo P. Fossa 8 years ago in iPad 0

Howdy, Alexander; I've posted this to you as a problem report before, and your response was that it was an Apple problem, and not the app's. I'm just here to ask whether you've heard from Apple.


The problem being, it's about impossible to edit tidied code. I have, for example, several files whose first records are up to 1200+ characters. While they are fully visible in Textastic, it is painful even to place the cursor accurately in the record, and agonizing to use the cursor-movement wheel. (You were able to reproduce the problem with example code I sent.)


For now, I've reverted to BBEdit on my MBP.

The ability to start a new document without creating it in an external source and uploading it to a cloud server would be nice.

jason redfoot 8 years ago in General updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 8 years ago 1

There is no way to start a new document or project in your app. The only way I can figure is to save a bunch of blank documents that can be opened to a cloud server so that they can be used later
