The Text Editor allows you to edit a variety of text files.
Input Format and Display Format
Text files can come in a merry assortment of different formats. Special characters (such as ä or é) are encoded in different ways.
Change the display format if you see weird symbols. The source file will be reloaded and you will lose any changes you may have made.
Output Format Popup Menu
You can choose the destination format from the format popup menu. The standard format will be the format the source file came in.
There are two special formats with an implied, fixed destination:
Text Viewer will convert a text file into a series of image files and add them to the camera roll - your very own, very basic eBook.
Notes Database will add the text file as a new note to the Notes database on the phone or iPod.
These two selections are somewhat outdated; a much better way to view text files is by making a webclip on the Jack the Clipper page and then
viewing it in Safari. This also works for PDF files!
Title
The title will be used for the Text Viewer and Notes output formats and as file name when you drag a newly created text file out of the drag zone.
