Yes, ssh -X is useful; an alternative for some uses, is sshfs. In one case I have had occasion to use sshfs through a gateway - recipe:
ssh gateway.example.net -f -N -L 9999:remote.example.net:22 sshfs -p 9999 localhost: $HOME/mnt/r1 As far as the original topic of diffmerge ... sounds cool - compare with meld and with emacs ediff (including ediff-revision integrated with source control).
