Thanks. This seems to be a bug in the TextMate syntax definition that is used by Textastic. The same happens in TextMate 1 and 2 on the Mac.

It seems to be related to the "_arg[i]->dotID()" call. As soon as I remove the "->" part, the syntax highlighting is correct.
Hello,

the default AppleScript .scpt files are binary files. You need to save the script as an .applescript file (file format: text) using the AppleScript editor on a Mac. Then you can edit it with syntax highlighting in Textastic.

Best regards,

Do you have a screenshot? I cannot reproduce the problem.
You can create new folders using the "+" button in the bottom toolbar.
Yes, I plan to add support for the document picker and iCloud Drive.
iOS 8 still has some keyboard bugs - especially when using the split keyboard on iPad.

Another user reported a workaround:

1. Merge the keyboard and put it back at the bottom.
2. Kill Textastic from the task switcher.
3. Restart Textastic.

Please let me know if that helps.
