I have previously been using AceFtp (freeware edition-& very good & useful-can I open/use this from Emacs?). Otherwise I have tried M-x ftp in minibuffer & get - ftp to host: - but then I do not think I am putting in correct file syntax as I do not seem to get anywhere (except the buffer says ftp mode(?)). I have searched the internet & seen bits about Ange-ftp & Tramp & org-mode etc but haven't seen a simple explanation of ftp server access anywhere yet! (no simple beginner emacs tutorial for this anywhere?!). Can someone please explain this to me simply? Later I will be interested in seeing how I can do website development in Emacs. For now I am most grateful for help & advice with accessing my ftp server & look forward to helpful replies. As ever, many thanks -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Help-to-connect-to---view-ftp-server-directory-files-tp25196906p25196906.html Sent from the Emacs - Help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
