for those always concern about security. Most KDE applications support ssh
which is quite usefull. For instance, in web development I normally use the
tab functionality with the web application, sftp on another to transfer
images mostly, and local file tab. To open a document I use the regular open
button but at the top of the open box I specify sftp://www.site.com and I
can edit the file from the server securely.

It took me quite a while after KDE 3.1 came out to find out about this. Much
like Shannon I had been doing lots of sftp from the command line.  I learned
to appreciate the bash command history functionality after using sftp for a
while.
