in thread How Would I access a C++ compiler remotely through a Perl CGI Script?

You can use scp. Or run an FTP server on your Linux box. (Better, SFTP.) Or use wget on your Linux box, if you can put the file somewhere your Linux box can see. Or use vim remotely, it displays just fine in a console window. : ) Or even just

$ cat > filename
*paste*
