Remote file editing using emacs + ssh
Get TRAMP (Transparent Remote file Access, Multiple Protocol) :
http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/tramp/
Install it :
cd ~/.emacs.d/ tar -xvzf /your/download/folder/tramp-2.X.X.tar.gz ln -s tramp-2.X.X tramp cd tramp ./configure --with-contrib make sudo make install
Configure your emacs to use it :
1. Add the following in your .emacs
;; Remote file editing via ssh (add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/tramp/lisp/") (require 'tramp) (setq tramp-default-method "ssh")
2. Launch your emacs
3. C-x C-f /user@your.host.com:/path/to/file
Warning :
Seems it doesn’t work if no password is required to login to host (using public key for example). But not sure at all…
