Depending on the latency and bandwidth you could use X11 forwarding
(granted the server supports it) so you could use a non-CLI editor. I
think "joe" has some syntax highlighting, but I've never edited PHP
files with it.
If you are coming from a windows machine, you can use Cygwin or Xming
to set up an X server on the box before SSHing to your data center
w/X11 forwarding enabled.

Many thanks to everyone!
I currently use a mixture of FreeBSD, Linux, and Solaris/OpenSolaris as
operating systems so X11 forwarding is not a problem but maybe quite
slow considering the distance between me and my data center right now,
and also I have only 1Mbps upstream as the data center uses ADSL which
is a restriction on my behalf.
Am using SFTP to transfer non-html related stuff and using simple nano
or copy-paste from the Gnome terminal.....
Yeah many options available I know and I guess that's what makes things
fun :-)
Anyway I'm sure I'll work something out, at worst case I could always
VPN once I get a Cisco router out here and get an IPsec tunnel going and
do things over NFS mount??

Kaya
