![]() ![]() It could even be something as cheap as a Raspberry Pi zero on the same network. Maybe using a sophisticated text editor like EMACS or maybe even vi, might be an option for you if you use an SSH client and a remote machine. It features Coda -like project thumbnails, tabbed editing and a built-in. Gusto Gusto (6.99) was one of the first code editors of the iPad. Depending upon the Python coding you’re doing, that might not either. You can find the official Textastic site here. ![]() Text editing, and Markdown, doesn’t require a fancy GUI.It is almost always worth it, certainly on iOS. If you were building something every day (and your last name is not Macgyver), would you rather have a range of tools or a Swiss army knife? Multi-purpose tools are great, but when you find something you are going to work with a lot, think about specialising. Do consider writing your Python in one place, your Markdown composing elsewhere and maybe even any other text editing options somewhere else again.Do take a look at Brett Terpstra’s (are we allow to say “drink” if this isn’t an MPU forum?) iOS text editors comparison chart.I have some stuff working around the basics of Working Copy, and I have an idea of how to make it work much better with it (some day I’ll have the time to finish my work on that), but even then … not really a place for Python.įrom what you described as your requirements, I think the closest possible match is Editorial.īUT… I’ll offer up some different perspectives. It grants access to numerous text editing settings that enables customization of the editing experience. It offers many editing settings and supports various markup languages and source codes. Awesome app, but not quite a text editor (it’s content is focussed on its own database of notes and external retrieval and updates is currently secondary at best). Textastic is a fantastic text and code editor for iOS programmers. Whereas in Editorial (or Pythonista), you could actually run your Python, in Textastic you’re going to have to round trip it elsewhere either on device (probably Pythonista), or to a networked system … in which case you’re going to need SSH and all the integrations you might want around that. Textastic has excellent Working Copy integration and is actually a text editor, but it isn’t scriptable. Markdown’s pretty ubiquitous, so I’ll set that to one side in that pretty much everything you might consider would have you covered on that one in one way or another.Īpps like Editorial, Ulysses and iAWriter are more word processors than text editors, and whilst they have scripting capabilities (only Editorial for Python), they don’t have that core text focus hat you are probably looking for. I have in my mind that you’re after something like SublimeText 3 … for iOS I’ve been mulling this over for a couple of days and I can’t think of anything that does what you ask … which was honestly a little surprising. ![]()
