Message-ID: <87shmj735r.fsf@nyu.edu> (raw)

    5.1 TRAMP file name conventions
    ===============================

       To log in to the remote host as a specific user, you use the
    syntax ‘/user@host:path/to.file’.  That means that connecting to
    ‘melancholia’ as ‘daniel’ and editing ‘.emacs’ in your home
    directory you would specify ‘/daniel@melancholia:.emacs’.

I believe the example given would edit '.emacs/ in DANIEL's home
directory.

I also think "path/to.file" is less commonly used in the docs than
path/to/file.
