- jerf 1y agoBecause the author had no particular expectation this would be a #1 hit on HN.
- scbrg 1y agoSo, here's the first three sentences in the linked article: I recently changed jobs and found myself in a position where I would need to do a lot of work on remote machines. Since I am Emacs user, the most common way to do this is using TRAMP (Transparent Remote access, Multiple Protcol). TRAMP is an Emacs package that let’s you treat a remote host like a local system, similar to VSCode Remote Development Extension. Doesn't that provide context?
- celeritascelery 1y agoTo be fair, I added that after reading the parent comment. I did a poor job of describing what TRAMP was because I targeting this towards Emacs users.
- scbrg 1y agoAh! That explains my confusion. Thanks for clarifying, and my apologies to sylens. Great post, by the way!
