auto-complete words in all kinds of files

Li Dong 13 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 13 years ago 2

I would like auto-complete in all kinds of files like Ctrl-p/Ctrl-n in VIM. I miss this feature so much that I am still using VIM for all my coding works. But since I have purchased Textastic, I would like this on the development list~~ : )

File type-specific indentation settings

mxey 12 years ago updated by MPLewis 9 years ago 4

Different programming languages have different established coding styles. Ruby is intended with 2 spaces, Python with 4 spaces, Go with tabs. 


At the moment, Textastic only supports one global setting for indentation. File-type specific settings would be useful.

Auto complete variables, functions, etc in same file.

Tristan Lueking 12 years ago updated by xsmo 9 years ago 1

Would it be possible for auto complete to work with variables and functions within the file you are working on? This would make coding a lot quicker as previously used functions/variables would be a part of the auto complete list.

Splitting view vertically

Niklas Modin 12 years ago updated 2 months ago 2
It would be great to be able to split the text view vertically. For instance working on a .h and .c file at the same time and being able to see both files at the same time without the need to start two instances. Also very useful when comparing files.

Curious as to whether you've considered creating a API that would allow others to write plugins for Textastic - that would allow some of the functionality requested here to written by others, so that you don't have to do all the work :)

Please limit undo/redo to the current tab only.

developerbob 12 years ago updated by Simon Bridgens 9 years ago 6
Please limit undo/redo to the current tab only. Each tab should have it's own undo/redo history. When I select undo or redo it should not apply to text in other open tabs.

Add Goto Offset/Position (character) option

Lubos Pochman 13 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 13 years ago 0 1 duplicate

It would be nice to have Goto Offset/Position (character) option so you can navigate to the character/position in the file with specified offset. It might be rolled into one Goto dialog with goto line like 100 is line number, 100:10 is relative position 10 on line 100, and :1234 is the absolute position in the file (character based).

I would like to see a preference so I can render markdown (I use Multimarkdown mostly) in a user selectable app.  I use Marked
