Auto set scripts to executable?

Michael Savich 12 years ago updated by Alice Bevan-McGregor 11 years ago 6

I saved a script to Finder and tried to run it, but I got a permission denied error. Seems there was no write access allowed. Is this a bug?

Show open files in a list on the right or left side of screen like bbedit. I keep a lot of files open when working on projects, and the tabs are cumbersome.

Primarily listing open files vertically instead of horizontally in tabs. I love your product on the iPad, but I use BBEdit on the mac because of the number of files I need to have open at one time.

Secondarily being able to manage "projects" or collections of files with FTP integration would be awesome.

Restore cursor position

Ian C 12 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 12 years ago 0

If I quit Textastic and reopen it, all the tabs from before are correctly restored, but the cursor position within each tab is not (it is placed at the start of the file). If you are editing large files it can be a pain to go back to where you were.

Automatically exclude a configurable list of file extensions from the project list.

Alice Bevan-McGregor 11 years ago 0

I'd like to exclude certain path names (i.e. .git folders, or everything starting with ., as well as more esoteric things like PROJ.egg-info folders) as well as certain filename extensions (*.pyc, *.pyo, *.o, etc.)

Copy as styled text

Ben Holland 12 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 12 years ago 2

The BEST feature of BBEdit and SubEthaEdit is the ability to copy as styled text. I use Evernote for my note-taking in class, and to be able to share styled text is SO valuable to me. I LOVE Textastic and want to use it for absolutely everything, but it is lacking this absolutely essential feature. If it had this, I would never use another text editor again.


This is useful for pasting code into a Word or PowerPoint presentation. Also VERY helpful for pasting code snippets into notes.

Answer

The next update will have the commands "Copy as Styled Text" and "Copy as Styled HTML".

Auto indent tags on return

handycam 10 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 8 years ago 3
See attached, textmate 2 vs textastic 3.  Most other editors behaves as TM2 does as well.

1. create UL tag, return
2 .cursor is before the closing tag, on the last line
3. move it and create space for LI tag, create LI tag
4.  repeat step 2
etc.

As you can see in TM example, hitting return inside the tag correctly create a new line and the cursor is at the proper indent level for the next enclosed tag or text.
