What’s New

Version 10.5.2

- Markdown Preview Customization: You can now add custom HTML to the head section of the generated Markdown preview. Save your HTML in “Local Files/#Textastic/markdown_head.html,” and it will be used for Markdown previews. This can be used to load JavaScript libraries like MathJax or Highlight.js, for example.
- Added buttons in Settings -> Web Preview to open “markdown.css” and “markdown_head.html” directly in the editor, making customization simpler.
- Improved File Transfer Reliability: Uploads to (S)FTP, Dropbox, and WebDAV are now more consistent, with enhancements to file coordination during uploads.
- Enhanced (S)FTP Debugging: Added detailed timestamps and optimized logging in (S)FTP debug logs for better insights during connection troubleshooting.
- Library Updates: Updated libssh2 and libcurl to the latest versions for improved performance and compatibility.

Fixes and Improvements:
- Fixed an issue where the syntax name in file properties wasn’t updated after selecting a new syntax.
- Resolved a bug where internal syntax definitions that were supposed to be hidden could be selected if the syntax definition was not yet fully loaded (e.g. "Make Output", "Cargo Build Results", "PHP Source", "Swift Standard Library", etc.).
- Fixed a crash that occurred when connecting to certain non-standard SSH servers.
- The app no longer prompts users to connect to a Wi-Fi network when starting while Airplane mode is enabled. This behavior was removed by deleting UIRequiresPersistentWiFi from the app’s Info.plist.
- Corrected an issue where the file transfer status label wasn’t displayed.
