I will say this though, I do a lot of editing of files on PCs, FreeBSD servers, Linux machines, and other Macs. I use vi or n+ + most of the time, because most of the time I have minor edits to make. But if my editing involves more than a few minutes worth of work, I move the file to my Mac, edit it in BBEdit, and then movie it back. the time I 'lose' transferring the file is more than made up for by the reduced level of aggravation and the greater ease in actually getting my work done.

Why move it at all? Edit it remotely -- a feature in BBEdit since 4.5.1 or so.

Because I have never figured out, despite some attempts at explanation, how to edit, for example, /etc/httpd/httpd.conf on my FreeBSD system with BBEdit remotely.

Ah, yeah, same here ('cept mine is in /usr/local/etc/apache and I use pico). Hey, which FreeBSD you on? I'm still on 4.10. Gotta ask someone if I can a)upgrade it remotely, and b)do so without having to recompiling anything else (hope so).
