When the file is displayed, close your connection. Obviously, now tramp is not going to be able to function normally anymore. But what happens is that Emacs now appears to freeze. I cannot repeat this using Today's CVS snapshot, Sun, 2004 May 9 12:17 UTC GNU Emacs 21.3.50.23 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.2.4) from which I am sending this message. I just visited a remote file on a system *not* running GNU/Linux. `uname -a' says it is running SunOS 5.9 Generic_112233-01 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-2 After visiting the remote file, by evaluating the following (find-file "/ssh:bob@shell.berkshire.net:/home/bob/www/notions/notions.html" nil) I killed my dial up connection, and reconnected (with lots of trouble, because my local phone line has gone bad again). I am able to make changes to the remote file and save them. Other tha being much slower than ange-ftp, Tramp with SSH seems to work fine. -- Robert J.
