Hi all,
I used to coding in remote unix server by connecting via putty in my
windows desktop, but the problem is that the account of unix server is
shared for varies users who are using vim, too. This causes the remote
vimrc chaos.
So I think it would be a great idea using local gvim with my own vimrc
to edit remote files. I know the way of `:e scp://...' to edit the
specified remote file via scp, but it need to switch from putty to
gvim when I want to open remote files after some operation in the
terminal, say grep, tail, or make. And switch it back if I want to
take another operation. It is quite inefficient.
Is it possible a way in putty terminal opening my local gvim in
windows desktop to edit the remote file without manually switching
window and retyping `:e scp://...' again and again?
Does gvim work for you on your local system?
I'm not sure what you mean by "it need to switch from putty to gvim". I
would've thought that gvim would be running in its own window and putty
in its own separate window, so switching between them is an o/s mousy
thing. You should be able to simply leave the gvim window up and
running, and so not need to type ":e scp://..." repeatedly.
Or perhaps you should try
:e scp://somehost/
(note the trailing slash) and "edit" the remote directory. Pick a
file, edit it, perhaps :w it; use :Rex to return to the netrw
directory listing, etc.

Chip Campbell
