It does so perfectly, thanks Dan.

Unfortunately, no. First, I have to comment out the
(require 'tramp)
in tramp-vc.el, otherwise it would complain with a
'Cannot load library file tramp-vc.el'.
This line was the most obvious change between the new and old version.
Now, when trying to log in (after correctly figuring out what my user
name is and asking for my password) it tells me:
Symbol's value as variable is void: user-login-name
I load tramp like this:
(setq load-path (cons (expand-file-name "~/emacs/tramp/lisp/") load-path))
(add-to-list 'Info-directory-list "~/emacs/tramp/texi/")
(require 'tramp)
(setq tramp-default-method "su")
BTW, did I say that this is a great package? It just needs more
publicity...
Colin
