Some friends have recommended vim and emacs to me. And one of the reasons is he can remotely edit a text file very easily.
This has been mentioned a few times, but of course TextWrangler/BBEdit both support Edit via FTP/SFTP, so presuming you are SSHing to your target machine, then you can easily edit remote files with TextWrangler/BBEdit.
For example, on the target machine while logged in via ssh, you can do this:
ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] bbedit sftp://[EMAIL PROTECTED]/perl/Peter/Tools.pm
I'll leave as an exercise to the perl hacker as to how to have to set up[ an alias and script to do this by typing
rbbedit Tools.pm
Enjoy, Peter.
