Can't view txt file

OK, so I purchased the app, and tried to transfer a text file over. I opened a Word file in Word, and did a "Save as" to save it as a text file. I transferred it over to the iPhone, and refreshed the list on the iPhone so that I could see the file. But when I selected it, all I could view was the document properties. It wouldn't show me the contents.

Back on the Mac, I used Cmd-I to look at the document properties, and I noticed that it said it was a Microsoft Word document, even though I had saved it as plain text, the extension was .txt, and looking at it on the Mac it was clearly plain text. So I thought that having the file type be Microsoft Word might have been causing the problem. So I opened the file in TextEdit and resaved it (under a different name to be sure) as a plain text file. When I looked at this file with Cmd-I, it clearly showed the file type as Plain text, but when I copied it to the phone and refreshed TouchFS on the phone, the same thing happened - I couldn't view the document itself, only the document properties.

Going back to the Word file, I was able to save it as both a PDF and an HTML file, and both worked fine, so I can view the file on my phone. But there seems to be some kind of problem with plain text. I can view the Readme plain text file that came with the app, so I don't know what's going on.

I also noticed that in order to transfer files, it seems that I have to have the phone turned on and the TouchFS app open. If the phone goes to sleep, I get disconnected from it in Finder. Is it designed to work this way? Once I understood what it was doing, it wasn't that hard to work around, but it's a little bit of a pain to have to make sure the phone stays on.

Seems like it's going to be a great app, but still has a few issues to deal with.

Thanks!
