All Versions of Editorial

1.3.4

February 7, 2020

This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon. • Added support for the iPhone X with its native resolution. • Changed toolbar color in the preview/accessory panel – this makes it easier to distinguish the preview from the editor. • Improved performance for switching between dark and light mode. • The accessory panel (preview, in-app browser...) uses the same tab bar UI on iPhone and iPad now. • Removed support for the public workflow directory. Your shared workflows will remain online for the foreseeable future, but the directory will soon become read-only. You can still share workflows using the "Copy Workflow" feature, of course, which is more flexible anyway, as it allows you to put your workflows in any plain text file. • Fixed an issue with explanatory text in the settings being displayed incorrectly (particularly on small screens). • Fixed footnote navigation in Markdown preview. • Fixed table view actions not being executed in "Custom UI" workflow actions. • Fixed a few issues with inline boneyard in Fountain documents.

• Native support for the 12" iPad Pro screen resolution. • Split-screen multitasking on supported iPads (Air 2 or later). • Updated Python interpreter (2.7.5 => 2.7.12) and lots of new and improved modules (e.g. `numpy`/`matplotlib`, revamped `photos` module, `objc_util`, and more). • Improved Python console with syntax highlighting, better support for multi-line statements, and a zoomable image viewer. • Errors/exceptions in Python scripts are now printed to the console instead of showing a simple alert, so you can read the full traceback. • The workflow editor has moved to the accessory panel, and the Python/UI editors are opened in separate tabs. • Improved UI editor with undo support and a more compact inspector panel (for *Custom UI* and *Python Script* workflow actions). • Fixed a couple of UI readability issues when using the dark theme.

June 15, 2015

* Folding – This allows you to hide sections of a document while writing – just tap the triangle next to a header; this works for Markdown, TaskPaper, and Fountain documents. * Customizable document templates – this allows you to add entries to the "new file" menu. Each template is a full-fledged workflow, so it's possible to choose the filename and contents of a new document based on a text input dialog, the current date, etc. * Quick settings – Tap the "Aa" button to adjust editor-related settings while writing. This includes a new "Text Zoom" option to make changing the overall font size easier. The new "Arrange Paragraphs" mode allows you to move lines in a document via drag'n'drop, just like in TaskPaper mode, but for all kinds of documents. By popular demand, there's also an option to turn off the extra on-screen keyboard row, in case you prefer writing with a hardware keyboard. * Improved support for iPhone 6 and 6 Plus * Improved in-editor search, including a "Highlight All" option in the editing menu that allows you to highlight occurrences of a word within the document without typing anything into the search bar * Multiple tabs and various other improvements in the web browser, e.g. support for filling in passwords using the 1Password app extension (if installed) * Multiple preview themes and improved editing for themes with HTML/CSS syntax highlighting * CriticMarkup syntax highlighting in Markdown mode * TaskPaper checkboxes are now also available on iPhone * New Fountain mode for writing screenplays * New interactive workflow building tutorial * New Python modules for accessing Twitter accounts and reminders * More bundled workflows * Significantly improved accessibility for VoiceOver users * Improved support for third-party browsers (e.g. Chrome, Opera Mini)

Description of Editorial

Editorial is a plain text editor for iOS with powerful automation tools and a beautiful inline preview for Markdown, TaskPaper, and Fountain documents. Features: * Inline Markdown/Fountain Preview – With Editorial's subtle syntax highlighting, you can see your document's formatting immediately while you're writing. And when you need a full HTML preview, it's just a swipe away. * Extensible with Workflows and Scripts – Select from over 50 text processing actions to create your own workflows for extending Editorial's feature set. For even more advanced automation, you can write Python scripts with an integrated code and UI editor. * Dropbox Sync – The sync folder is customizable, so you can easily edit your documents with multiple apps. * Smart Keyboard – The extended keyboard was specifically designed for writing Markdown and includes all the special characters you need. You can also control the cursor with simple swipe gestures. * Snippets – Quickly insert frequently-used pieces of text by typing abbreviations. Snippets can include dynamic text, e.g. the current date or clipboard contents. TextExpander™ snippets are also supported. * In-App Browser – If you need to do some quick research while writing, you don't have to leave the app for that. You can even open multiple tabs. * "Folding" allows you to quickly hide individual sections of your document while you're writing. *** *** *** “It would be hard to imagine a better editor, let alone recommend one that actually exists.” — The Verge “This is it. Editorial sets a new standard for third-party iOS automation, and, for me, there’s no going back.” — Federico Viticci, MacStories “Editorial just reinvented iOS text editing.” — Merlin Mann

Reviews of Editorial

  • Perfectly Designed, Easy to Use

    I cannot imagine a more beautiful or well-designed application for working with Markdown files on iOS. Editing, viewing, and exporting documents feels perfectly natural. For mobile devices I can recommend no other editor more highly than I can this one.
  • The most flixible & powerful editor I have found

    Sorry to see this app die. It has been such a huge help for me I wish I could give it six stars. It has performed flawlessly, and though I mainly used it with Markdown on files stored on Dropbox, I was in it almost daily without a single hiccup. That said, it looks like it is no longer maintained, so I am checking out Obsidian. Joplin also appears to be a very capable (and less fiddly) option with good sync. Both are extensible and multi-platform, if like me you are looking for options.
  • Editorial for work

    Covers a lot of ground. I tailor as many of my organization (of info) tasks as I can to Editorial. Nicely behaved. What I can’t do easily I bounce via Dropbox to my main (Linux) machine. Easy because everything’s in plain text. All thumbs up!
