Neil,
The point about the multi-file search is an excellent one. My work
around, since I'm using C or C++ with complicated projects, is to use
cscope on the remote server, with my CSCOPE_EDITOR=bbeditcscope, where
bbeditcscope is a script that looks like this:
#!/bin/bash
# $1 : Line number from cscope in +## format
# $2 : File name, relative to cscope's location
ssh derosier@$REMOTEHOST /usr/local/bin/bbedit --front-window $1
"sftp://$USER@$HOSTIP/$PWD/$2";
In my .bashrc, I set $REMOTEHOST and $HOSTIP:
export REMOTEHOST=`echo $SSH_CLIENT | cut -d ' ' -f 1`
export HOSTIP=`echo $SSH_CONNECTION | cut -d ' ' -f 3`
Of course, while I call it a work around, I usually make heavy use of
cscope anyway as it's way easier to search giant codebases like the
Linux kernel with it.
@Mook - That should give you enough clues to figure out how to make a
bbedit command on the server.
