Change cursor color

Paul van Hemmen 11 years ago updated 11 years ago 4
Although asked already for the iOS Version of Textastic, it seems that it's not possible to change the cursor color of a theme just by editing the "selection" HEX Color Value in the theme's xml (in my case its Obsidian.tmTheme). Either the values are somehow cached by Textastic or the value has no influence on the cursor color.

Am I wrong or is it just not possible to change the cursor color by now?

On editing two files which are hard links, the last saved one is empty.
Reproduction:
$ echo hello > foo.txt
$ open foo.txt # with textastatic
$ ln foo.txt bar.txt
$ cat bar.txt
hello
$ open bar.txt # with textastic
...add content to the file and save or just save...
$ ls -al
-rw-r--r-- 1 user wheel 0 14 mar 12:05 bar.txt # <- now empty!
-rw-r--r--@ 1 user staff 7 14 mar 12:05 foo.txt

Superb on the iPad, but not quite ready for the laptop world

fjpoblam 12 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 12 years ago 1

If you're trying to compete in the laptop world, you're up against masters like BBedit. A lofty goal. I bought Textastic for my MBP today mainly out of loyalty and curiosity. I *could* use it just for cloud purposes. But on the other hand, for cloud needs, really, FTP to and fro with my and clients' websites fits the ticket just as well. For now, my suggestion: just keep up the good work and focus on mobile performance, pards. Live long and prosper. \o/

Please implement Bare Bone's ODB Editor Suite, which allows Textastic to function as an external editor for apps like MarsEdit, Transmit, etc.

Reproducible beachball/crash whle editing

Rui Carmo 10 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 10 years ago 3
I'm getting repeated crashes when editing a Markdown file. If I have an existing fenced code block and try to add a comment (prefixed by "#"), Textastic beachballs instantly and I have to kill it.
```
# Crashes as soon as I type the "# <letter>"
```
I'm running the latest App Store version (Version 3.1 (28)) in Yosemite.

sticky css command

Andrew London 9 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 9 years ago 1

I don't know if I'm just being really stupid here but there doesn't seem to be "position: sticky" in the textastic css vocabulary. Is there? Or am I trying to go about sticky positioning in the wrong way?

Filter folder contents on opening

Paul Correa 11 years ago 0
Hi,

I just got textastic for mac after using the iPad version for a year. On opening a folder it would be nice if you could filter the contents so that only the source code files are displayed (in my case the .f03 files). It would be less cluttered and easier to find things in larger directories if all the object, module, etc files were not present. A great program and I look forward to improvements!

Plain Text & text navigation via Command+Arrows

Phil 12 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 12 years ago 1

When using soft/word-wrap, it would be nice if text-navigation using the regular OS X short cuts worked in accordance to how the document appears, as opposed to how it's represented in the file. Example:


Image 38

I mean, yeah, it's probably only going to matter when someone is writing free-flowy-ish text as opposed to 'structured' / 'pretty' code. But, y'know.

follow symbolic links in Folders Sidebar

Robert Crooks 10 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 10 years ago 1
Since I mostly work on web projects stored in Github, I have them all sym-linked under the document root of my local web server. It would be nice if sym links were followed in the Sidebar, so that I could just open my doc root and work on multiple projects at once.
Not a must-have feature for me, but a very-nice-to-have. Putting this out there to see if others want it also.
