Hey all, When you're forced by circumstance to work with a web site which only has FTP access (no ssh or anything friendly) what do you typically work with? Right now I've got gftp open, I download a file, edit it locally with vim, save and upload again. Unfortunately, this seems terribly klugey. (it takes a long time switching back and forth, sometimes I forget to upload a file before I refresh the web browser, etc. etc.) There's got to be a better way.
I've heard rumours that you can edit files remotely using vim, but :e ftp://someserver/path/to/file.php just sits there for a minute and then opens a blank file. So what do /you/ guys do when stuck in such a terrible position? ~ ross ____________________ BYU Unix Users Group http://uug.byu.edu/ ___________________________________________________________________ List Info: http://uug.byu.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/uug-list
