Xcode text editing is one of the major points of focus for the next release cycle.

The problem seems to be even worse in 1.1. Now I can't even insert two tabs at the beginning of a new line at the end of the file, no matter what settings I use.

All I want is very simple auto-indent, just copying the indentation on the previous line, as per Project Builder, or BBEdit, or MPW, or every text editor ever written since about 1988. I don't need tab to do anything other than insert a tab at that point. I can't find a way to switch off XCode's "cleverness".

Please file a bug on these issues.

... I open up the .m file from an Xcode plugin. The salient portion looks like:

@implementation MyPlugin
@end

I place the insertion point at the end of "@implementation MyPlugin". I type <Return>. Nothing happens. Color me frustrated -- this is basic text editing gone awry.

I was unable to reproduce this. Which project template did you use, specifically? There is no specific template for an "Xcode plugin" as such.


BTW, I've started this plugin because there is no "Enter Replace String <Cmd-Shift-E>" item in the "Find" menu. It's really weird to have to do this because it's a standard item in Macintosh code editors (same ones as above). Any chance there'll be such an item in the near future?

Please file a bug report/enhancement request for this feature.

best,
Godfrey
