the TRAMP Info node suggests,

  «you should set the variable TRAMP-DEFAULT-METHOD to reflect
   [the appropriate transfer method].»

I think that an example would have been beneficial here... my
first thought was to 

  (setq tramp-default-method 'scp) 

to instruct TRAMP to use ssh/scp.  this didn't work, because
tramp-default method apparently is supposed to be set to a
string... I figured out that

  (setq tramp-default-method "scp") 

was the proper way of doing it, but it would have been easier if
this (or something similar) was stated as an example.  

Henrik.
