If the problem is that you cannot access hidden files on an FTP server (like .htaccess): there will be an option for that in the next update.

What exactly is not working for you?

Can you please send me those files to support(at)textasticapp.com so I can try to reproduce the crash?

Well, you can simply choose the lisp syntax highlighter in the File Information popover and keep the file extension. Textastic remembers the chosen syntax definition for the next time you open the file.

Hi, I've received the clojure syntax definition from Frank and also added it to Textastic. But, I just checked if it is working and unfortunately, I made a mistake when adding it to the project:

Textastic 2.0 does recognize the clj extension and correctly shows that it detected it as a Clojure file, but it doesn't highlight the file.

Somehow I forgot to add the clojure.plist file to the project so it wasn't in the app.

I've just corrected this mistake and it will be available in the next update.

I've just implemented this. Will be available in Textastic 2.1.

I'll have a look.

For SFTP (a subsystem of SSH) please have a look at http://feedback.textasticapp.com/feedback/13055-will-there-be-support-for-sftp/
