I can now add a link to Textastic by switching to safari, loading the page and clicking the linkHTML link on Safari’s toolbar. The bookmarklet uses this JavaScript File, if you care about JavaScript I would not look at it I just kept changing things till it worked for me. I added the bookmarklet to Safari on my desktop which syncs with my iPad. The bookmarklet link has the following code: I’ve created a bookmarklet that adds a bit onto the top of a webpage with a text box in it, the textbox contains the html tag to link to the page: I’ve now come up with a simple, if crude, system. I did a bit of a google and came up with nothing. Getting links on the iPad was a bit tedious, switching between Safari and Textastic and typing the code, pasting in the url. Getting links, was the last piece of the jigsaw, as well as grabbing html link tags from Safari Stand or CoLT in FireFox, in TextMate you can select some text and press command-control-shift-L and TextMate will use google to provide a link, not always the right one but very useful. Open flickr app and upload, open Safari and grab html code, switch to Texttastic and paste. That makes posting images simple if a little long winded: Screenshot, edit in an app, save to camera roll.

however toy can switch to the full site which works fine on the ipad. Unfortunately neither the Flickr App or the mobile version of Flickr do not provide the html code. Images, there is not a way to upload images to the blog that fits in with html editing, but it is easy to upload images with the flickr app to flickr. After a bit of testing I’ve now got a fairly useful toolkit.ĭropbox integration, html editing: Textastic allows you to open and save to dropbox, does syntax highlighting and to easily type various characters that are normally buried in the iOS keyboard. I’ve managed ok using the Notes app, and using dragon dictation to ‘write text’ but hadn’t found a solution to some other features.
I am not hoping for the power of TextMate for editing html but wanted to do some blogging from an iPad. I also save the TextMate files to my dropbox so that I can edit the posts on different boxes. I also use SafariStand which added copy html tag to the contextual menu when right clicking on a link and to Safari’s toolbar: What is even nicer is that you can drag images from ImageWell after a quick resize or edit without saving it.

I use TextMate and its blogging bundle which does all sorts of nice things to simplify the process: for example dragging an image onto TextMate’s window, uploads the image to the blog and inserts the html code to put it in the post. Tagged blogging, textmate | Leave a commentįor historical reasons and to give myself some sort of illusion of control I tend to write blog posts in html.
Worked in the post fine, but has a file icon rather than a thumbnail. Update, made from TM, the image above looks strange in the media library.

I am running Mojave on my mac and when I finally upgrade a few OSs I suspect things will not run smoothly. Mind you TextMate is getting long in the tooth and the blogging bundle has not been updated for 4 years. I though I’d just make an Alfred snippet to do that, when I did so I found I’d already done that a while back! This allowed you to produce the headers at the top of the file. Since TextMate went to version 2 it no longer had the templates feature. I am now thinking I can blog to a draft (see the screenshot below) then sort out the post kind in the browser. I stopped using TextMate for blogging when I started using IndieWeb concepts on my Blog. > 400 posts on this blog were created using textMate. I am back using the blogging bundle for TextMate to post to my blog.
