Ange-FTP calls this kind of filenames "extended filenames", how about that? I think it describes the purpose of the thing quite well... It's a filename with more stuff than just a filename: a method, user and host. What do you think? (The added bonus is that now that Tramp and Ange-FTP filenames look alike, the user won't be confused by different names.) -- Romain FRANCOISE | When we were kids, we hated it's a miracle -- http://orebokech.com/ | things our parents did.
