Re: editor for remote files using ssh

I use HTML-Kit which highlights syntax for a number of languages, PHP included. I am unsure of its ability to connect using SSL but it's very customisable when creating a new remote folder and I use it to work on remote files all the time. It simply creates a connection if needed and saves the files when you hit save. Hope that was of use. -- ----------------------------- Michael Mason Arras People www.arraspeople.co.uk ----------------------------- "Peter Risdon" <peter@circlesquared.com> wrote in message news:410284E9.9040207@circlesquared.com... > I have been using emacs/tramp for editing files on remote machines, but > I find it can be flaky - no doubt I am doing something wrong.
