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 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

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:

Hello, did you try to use the "ASP vb.NET" syntax definition? It might work reasonably well.

You can just tap on the button in the top right corner and choose "Preview in Safari" and put Safari in split view mode next to Textastic.

Is it enough to just select "XML" as the syntax definition? This won't highlight JavaScript though.
