in reply to Cool Code Editor

Not to burst your bubble, but that's a pretty run-of-the-mill feature. Emacs has done that forever, and most of the pro editors on Windows (I've been trying out Visual Slick Edit) seem to do it too. Emacs can actually edit files over scp/ssh. Now that's a cool feature!

    I've heard lots of cool things about emacs, but I just haven't forced myself to give it a good try, especially with all of those Ctrl-? commands. Guess once you've learned one key binding (vi), you become biased towards it.

    Now that I know about SSH, I may have to give it another shot.

      Well, you can use vi bindings in emacs, but then again, vim6 has the hability to use scp/ssh.

      Just do a vim rcp://machine/path and happy viming :-)
