Re: [h-e-w] Editing remote file on Linux machine using Emacs on Windows

[Kenneth Goldman]

Emacs supports ftp and (I'm told) ssh.  So simply start emacs
on your Windows client and edit the files directly on the Linux
machine.

This is independent of emacsclient, and doesn't require X or
cygwin or anything other than running an ftp server on the
Linux box.
