Opening a Markdown link in Safari mishandles escapes
Example...
in Markdown:
[YouTube vid](https://www\.youtube\.com/watch?v=2SJ977\-CMPg&t=360)
if I try to open this in Safari or copy the link (from the Preview)... I get the following URL, which is malformed...
https://www/.youtube/.com/watch?v=2SJ977\-CMPg&t=360
there's several issues with that URL... first \. in the Markdown should become . in preview, but instead it becomes /.
also \- should become - and & should become & but both are left as is
as a test, the following 2 lines of Markdown will produce the identical string of output characters (although the second line will be wrapped in a "pre" tag), unless escaping is broken in which case the first line will have extra backslashes
\!\#\&\(\)\*\+\-\.\:\<\>\@\[\\\]\^\_\`\{\|\}\~\
``!#&()*+-.:<>@[\]^_`{|}~``
ssh key updates - request
I have my servers set to only allow remote login with ssh keys (no passwords). Given this, I’d love to see the ssh key handling in Textastic updated to allow for modern open ssh key formats and key formats such as ed25519 and ecdsa 521.
I’d also love to see the private keys automatically stored in an encrypted file accessible only to the app or something other than the local files folder.
Finally, a clipboard import feature would be super nice.
Thanks!
Still can not edit file over SSH/FTPS?
I saw the developer reply for this Feature for over 10 years and now still no this feature?
You can do this using the Secure ShellFish app:
- add the SSH/SFTP server to Secure ShellFish
- enable Secure ShellFish location in the Files app
- add the server as an external folder to Textastic (see https://www.textasticapp.com/v9/manual/integration_other_apps/external_files_folders.html#adding-external-folders)
This allows you to edit files lives on an SFTP server.
CoffeeScript files not open

Korean text typing error
In recent version (maybe 9.6~), Korean character at the first position of line suffers disassemble error. For example, when typing ‘강물’ (in order of ㄱ + ㅏ + ㅇ + ㅁ + ㅜ + ㄹ), Textastic force to represent ‘ㄱㅏㅇ물’. There is no way to assemble it; the only (temporary) solution is add a whitespace or other character before typing, and delete it later.
I could reproduce the problem and found a workaround. This will be fixed in the next update.
Being able to open ejs files with Textastic
I can‘t open ejs files with Textastic through Working Copy.
How can I do this or are you going to add the file support?
Jump to file in folder
Hey, nice app. Just bought it and started using it on my iPad. I think theres should be a way to jump within files in the loaded directory. Sort of the way you can do cmd+p in vscode.
This would be of great help andimprove productivity within the app itself.
Universal purchase
Is Textastic available as a universal purchase? Currently the app store only allows using the app on both iOS (and iPadOS) and macOS through double spend.
Currently Textastic for iOS and Textastic for macOS are two separate apps for different platforms with different feature sets and require two separate purchases.
How to begin styling with css
Hi I have just finished writing my code on html using Textastic and I just don’t know how to get around opening another tab and setting it to css so that I begin styling my code
I assume that the .html file is stored somewhere in the "Local Files" or in the "iCloud" location.
- In the same folder, tap the "+" button in the bottom toolbar.
- Enter a file name with a ".css" file extension -> this opens a new CSS file in a new tab.
- In the .html file, add a link tag to the head section as described at https://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_link.asp
- If you now open the web preview using the glasses icon while the tab with the .html file is open, you should see the CSS styles from the .css file applied. You can also open the web preview on the .css file and enter the path to the .html file in the address bar of the web preview. This allows you to preview the website while previewing the .css file without having to switch to the .html file first.
Alternatively, you can add the CSS directly to the .html file using a style tag in the header section as described at https://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_style.asp.
