Does Tramp have its own mailing list anywhere? It certainly does seem to work much better in the newer version of emacs, but one observation and one question: - with (setq insert-default-directory nil) in my .emacs file, tab completion in the minibuffer to a tramp destination screws up quite frequently. - how do I sudo to another user on the remote system? I need to do this to edit a lot of the files I'd want to fiddle with... cheers, Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Zope & Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk
