emacs' venerable "efs". "C-h C-i efs" from within emacs. another emacs alternative is "tramp", which will access files over scp/ssh/rsync. otherwise, most (command line) ftp clients give you a "!" shell escape command. ie: "get file", "! vi file", "put file". there's also "zftp" built in to the z shell, if you want to go that way instead.. -- - Gus -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
