SFTP not functioning as expected
I didn't expect Textastic's SFTP function to download a copy of the directory structure to the iPad.
Will there be support for working on remote files remotely?
Thanks

Persistence : opened files are not remembered
On iPad OS 26.1, I usually leave my work files opened in textastic in multiple windows and it was about fine until recently where it’s common for the files to be closed / empty after a while.
It would be nice to have more persistence of opened files, I suspect iPad OS being more agressive on memory usage lately could explain that ?
I work with a lot of opened apps and external screen / stage manager : I try to keep textastic windows and blinkshell in a stage, files are remote (through shellfish) and textastic up to date (10.8.3)
Static caret support
Please provide an option for static (non-blinking) caret (text cursor) behavior in the code editor. Such an option has been generally implemented in iOS since iOS 18 (accessible in accessibility settings). I, and presumably others as well, find a blinking caret to be distracting.
Samba share data missing
After adding and external source using a Samba share as defined in the File App some entry files in the left side column are missing.
That happen on iPad and not on iPhone (bot with Ios26]
The samba server is Debian based and seems correctly configured (on iPhone is working)
Do you have any suggestion?
Attached you will fine some screenshots



SFTP fails to download empty files
When downloading a directory, the app fails to fetch empty files, for example the __init__.py files in python packages. The error message is always that it hit maximum number of redirects, but I don’t think that’s the actual problem, I’ve never seen this error for anything else than empty files.
Great app otherwise!

App does not open
Hello, I've had the program for a few years now, and everything was working flawlessly. I was even working with it the day before yesterday, but now I can't open the app anymore. I've restarted, deleted the app, and reinstalled it, but nothing happens. I need help, please.
jump to top of document when switching windows between apps
Using latest public versions & OS on iPad, when moving back and forth between a document in textastic window (remote source with shellfish) and a blinkshell window the cursor jumps to top of document (I have to repeat the switching several tilmes for this to start, but it seems consistent).
Happens on external monitor with stage manager active
