As a Windows guy who uses Linux on servers only, I used to install samba onto the servers and map a drive to that (over a hardware VPN). These were servers that I had full control over. I'd use an IDE on Windows and directly edit the code. Save, reload in Browser, see changes.
Now due to changes in where I host my stuff, I can't do that anymore, and I'm struggling to find a simple solution. I have recently discovered that WinSCP can 'edit' a file by pulling it locally into a temp folder, opening your IDE of choice, and then auto resyncing the file to remote server whenever the local copy changes. It's OK as a workflow, but not as flexible as having an open folder to just drop stuff into.
I know the latest version of Dreamweaver has the same sort of thing built in which would be better... But as a hobbyist, I just can't afford that.
