Visit does not strictly mean edit. > You are just as ambiguous as you are inaccurate. In Emacs parlance, "visiting" means loading the contents of a file into a buffer for some purpose (reading, editing, processing, whatever.) On this mailing list, saying that Emacs can visit a file on a remote machine is more precise than saying that it can edit that same file. TRAMP is much more than visiting remote files. It is a framework for working with a local Emacs instance on a remote machine. For example: with your local Emacs visit a remote source file, then compile it and run a gdb session as you would do if it were a local file.
