As a matter of curiosity....When using 'fish', do any of you enter your
username and password...like fish://user:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ?
If so, does the browser history show the password in clear text? I was
just playing with Firefox using ftp://user:[EMAIL PROTECTED] and sure
enough, the browser history shows the password in the clear. If one
doesn't enter the password (i.e. ftp://[EMAIL PROTECTED]) one is prompted for it
but the browser history does not show it.
Just curious.
Cheers

I had never heard of fish (except a vague recollection from the deep
past)
It looks very very useful.
Thank you.

It's incredibly useful when dealing with remote computers.
Right now I'm working on some php order pages on a server in the USA.
I'm looking at the remote directory server in Konqueror which has been
split to show a local working directory in the left window.
So I can easy drag & drop files between the local & remote server to
work on them, create backups etc.
To edit the remote php files I simply right click on the file on the
remote server and it is loaded into kate on my computer. Every time I
press CTRL-S to save it's saved directly back to the remote server.
That means I can make changes and test the result in a browser in 2-3
seconds. No messing around with a separate FTP program.
You can get the same effect with ssh and vi (remotely editing I mean, not
the drag and drop stuff)
