eshell shortcuts for remote tramp paths?

eshell shortcuts for remote tramp paths?

[joakim]

This has bothered me for a while, and I cant figure it out.

Say that I open an eshell and do:

cd  /scp:joakim@192.168.201.58:/home/joakim/nextv

My commands now work remotely. nice.

However, I now want to do ~/bin/lein on the remote. Is there some
shorcut for this? otherwise I need to type:
/scp:joakim@192.168.201.58:/home/joakim/bin/lein run


Its the same when trying to refer to the remote root path, /.

- You could use relative paths:

 ../bin/lein run

- You could add "/home/joakim/bin/" to your remote $PATH env var

- You could try one of the tricks (not tested in eshell) described in
