Is it possible to save the last opened folders in the left side like sublime? Only thing keeping me from using Textastic as its annoying to have to reopen all the folders I was previously working in every time I reopen the program.

Apologies for the somewhat non-specific title.

All of my files should be in UTF-8.  For source code it doesn't really matter (since valid symbols are in the ASCII 7-bit range and the primary base language is English) but when editing a gettext .po symbols file to update some of the translations I noticed, too late, that the encoding that was selected was ISO-8859-1†.  Before changing it, all of the previously UTF-8 text looked fine, or at least, I didn't notice any problems.  After changing the encoding back to UTF-8 and saving the file (where the file looks OK in the editor) and recompiling my .po file, the webapp encoding is completely destroyed.  Closing and re-opening the file, I get text like:

"les données à  une analyse"

The webapp presented this even worse if I attempted to manually set the browser encoding to ISO 8859-1; double conversion is ugly business.  Luckily I version control everything, so it could be rolled back, but a close look needs to be given to how Textastic handles file encoding.  So far I haven't been able to reproduce, but I will try to create a basic test case for you after work.

† Incorrectly called "ISO Latin 1" in your menus; it's "Latin 1" or "ISO 8859-1"… only Microsoft calls it by a mixed name as ISO standards are all numbered. ;)  More correct would be "Western (ISO 8859-1, Latin 1)", same for all of the other ISO 8859 variants, but that's a separate issue.
