This is an academic answer in that I've only ever
read about it not tried it....
A quick question about the tools of programming. I remember the long
discussion a few months ago about editors: my requirements are much narrower
here. Is there a program that can open and save files via FTP on a remote
location, supports Python syntax highlighting and works on Windows? I
usually use SciTE or just good old IDLE, but neither can do FTP ...
I think emacs can do this in something called archie mode(??)
It goes and ftps a copy of the file and when you 'save' it it ftps it back
again
to the remote server.
Emacs of course has a python mode so you simply run that on the file while
editing to get syntax coloring etc.
I think thats what you wanted?
