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,

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

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.

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

When a file that's stored in iCloud gets moved out of local storage (automatically by the OS I assume), as indicated by the dotted cloud symbol, and then automatically restored (again by the OS I assume) when it is used, it loses the remote link information.

For example, I have a folder of files that is sourced from a SSH connection, stored in iCloud. All works fine, until iOS decides to clear space by removing some of these. They get restored automatically, so that's fine, but once that's done I can no longer upload/download because the link is gone.

I've seen other requests like "cmd + g" for 'Go To Line', and similar things. To me, that's wrong, and it should be "cmd + L" similar to most other IDEs. However, it would be nice if there were a shortcut/hot key area in settings where we could add and customize these at will. Some commonly used ones.

"Cmd + L" -> Go to Line Number

"Cmd + Shift + O" -> Quick open file name

"Cmd + F" -> Find

"Cmd + R" -> Replace (which could be reconfigured to Build/Run, for instance)

"Cmd + W" -> Close open file/tab

These are just some examples, but I think this could end up being a really powerful feature for users.

It’s great that dark themes can be used in the main editing view, but then when one of the white-background file management views is called up, it’s a bit like a stab to the eyes!

Please implement a night mode for the file management views. That will make a great app even better.

Thanks

Pre version 6 lhe web engine local storage was persistent. On iOS it now resets when the app is closed

opt+cmd+p is convinent for preview, but everytime after previewing is done, I had to used finger to tap "done" in order to get back to edit mode which is unefficient !
