For Textastic 7, I plan to add the ability to open multiple files in tabs.

Between launches, Textastic will remember which files are opened in tabs. This means, that you can keep your set of files open and you do not even need to select from recent files.

Would that already help you?

I guess by distraction free mode you mean that only the editor and keyboard should be shown and toolbars and other UI should be hidden?

You can already set the column at which the text wraps if you disable the Auto Word Wrap setting. The text won't currently be centered though.

Hello,

Textastic fully supports Chinese text encodings, but the automatic character encoding detection may sometimes choose the wrong encoding.

In this case, please try to tap and hold a file you want to open and choose "Open with Encoding". Then select the correct Chinese encoding and the file should display correctly.

You can see a screenshot of this menu in this topic of the manual: https://www.textasticapp.com/v6/manual/lessons/How_can_I_view_an_image_file_or_open_a_file_in_another_app.html

Oh, I just saw that it was accidentally marked as the official answer for this topic, sorry for that.

Hello, I only marked your question as "Under review". I'll see if I can reproduce it on my device.

How did you open the file for which this happens?

Textastic 7 will be able to open SSH Terminal connections in tabs. 

Hello, I'll consider it for a future update.

Yes, this only works if the file is stored in either "Local Files" or "iCloud" or in an Git repository folder opened from Working Copy (see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z0gyGwsF8vI) . 

I suggest to use Textastic's built-in Dropbox support and downloading files from Dropbox instead of the "Open…" command: https://www.textasticapp.com/v6/manual/lessons/How_do_I_access_files_in_my_Dropbox_account.html

Then use the quick upload feature to upload your changes back to Dropbox:
