What's new in Textastic 3.0?

Major new features:

• Re-implemented the code editor and syntax highlighting engine from the ground up. The new engine is compatible with TextMate syntax definitions and themes.
• You can choose from many popular themes
• New symbol list shows symbols in the current file (for example function and class names, html ids, markdown headlines...)
• The new syntax highlighter supports nested syntaxes (CSS in HTML in a PHP file)
• Markdown syntax highlighting
• You can now use your own custom syntax definitions and themes (this is explained in the manual)
• You can now bring up a list of recently opened files by tapping on the file name. This allows to quickly switch between several files. There's also a button that allows you to close the currently open file.
• Full support for Japanese text and other wide characters

NOTE: Because of a change that was necessary in this version, you'll have to re-enter all passwords for your connections after you install the update. Sorry for that.

Other changes:

• Added modification time in file listings
• Added a redo button
• Added more character encodings
• New "Copy All" command to copy the contents of the current file
• CSS styles in Markdown are now used for preview
• When you do a quick file transfer, you can disable the overwrite confirmation prompt. You can also re-enable the confirmation in the app's settings screen.
• Row of additional keys is now shown in Find/Replace
• TextExpander support in Find/Replace
• If you manually select a syntax definition for a file, this is used as the default for all files with the file's extension (this helps with .h files, which can be C++, C or Objective-C)

Connections:

• Added ipv6 support for (S)FTP connections
• Fixed some WebDAV issues
• WebDAV: support for self-signed ssl certificates
• FTPS/FTPES: "SSL Mode": you can now require SSL only for the control connection or for all communication
• FTP: empty files (0 bytes) can now be downloaded
• FTP: You can now set the maximum amount of concurrent connections for FTP connections
